Themyscira (DC Comics)
Themyscira (, ) is a fictional, lush island nation on Earth, appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. The island is the place of origin of Wonder Woman and her sister Amazons. Originally known as Paradise Island since Wonder Woman and the island's first appearance in All Star Comics #8 (December 1941), it was created by William Moulton Marston to allegorize the safety and security of the home where women thrived apart from the hostile, male-dominated world. It was renamed "Themyscira" with the character's February 1987 relaunch in Wonder Woman (vol. 2) #1. The island is named after the mythological city of Themiscyra, the capital of the Amazon tribe in Greek mythology.
