After the Amazons won their freedom from slavery, Hera gifted them with a new home, an island in the Aegean Sea called Themyscira. Empowered by the gods, the Amazons would be protected from the chaos of man's world, immortalized, and construct a utopia to reclaim purity of soul. A silver mirror forged by Hephaestus cloaked the island and kept it hidden away for centuries. Themyscira became a center of intellectual and cultural pursuit surrounded by pristine outgrowths of nature. It quickly earned the nickname of "Paradise Island."
When the Amazons left Themyscira to fight Ares, the US government believed the island was the source of the mystical army and tried to destroy it with a nuclear missile. Steve Trevor manned the Invisible Jet and saved the island.
