In Pontus, the land of the Amazons, gender roles and natures are completely reversed: men stay at home and take care of the children and women are the strong sex, thanks to the sacred girdle of the Roman goddess Diana. It is in the care of Queen Hippolyta and her sister Antiope, the commander of the female armed forces. Only Sapiens, Queen Hippolyta's new husband, advocates women's rights.
