The International State of ROLASS is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by President-Emperor Rolass with an iron fist, and remarkable for its vat-grown people, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful, devout population of 27.523 billion Rolassias are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Reda. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Rolassian economy, worth a remarkable 9,651 trillion Slavic Zloties a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Tourism. Average income is an amazing 350,680 Slavic Zloties, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

President-Emperor Rolass's office is running a trade deficit of midnight oil, the nation's infamous boot camp is more brutal than most battlefields, wigged-out hunters report playing croquet with the Queen of Hearts, and truncheon-mounted cameras record the beating of criminals in dynamic HD detail. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. ROLASS's national animal is the Griffin, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Rolassian Roman Catholicism.

ROLASS is ranked 14,162nd in the world and 1st in New World Alliance for Most Stationary, with 1,839.09435770108 days.
