At one point in Roshar's past there were no large landmasses.{{wob ref|3556}} The supercontinent was designed by [[Adonalsium]], following the shape of a Julia set (a mathematical formula that gives a geometrical pattern when given a seed number).{{wob ref|3953}} It is the only continent on the planet, though not necessarily the only landmass.{{wob ref|6248}}
 
Gravitational acceleration on Roshar is notably lower than usual, at 6.8786 m/s<sup>2</sup>, or 70% of the cosmere standard.{{au ref|roshar}} This is due, in part, to the planet's small size; Roshar has a circumference of approximately 22110 miles (35583 km), giving a radius of 3519 miles (5663 km), and comes in just under 90% of the cosmere standard size.{{au ref|roshar}}{{wob ref|10231}} These yield a planetary mass of 3.296&times;10<sup>24</sup> kilograms. The main continent lies primarily in the southern hemisphere, spanning from just a few degrees north of the equator to about 55&deg; south of the equator, and extends approximately 120&deg; longitude.{{map ref|Roshar}} It covers roughly 4&times;10<sup>7</sup> square kilometers.
