Fictional History
Thalarion was created by the Olympian god Zeus to home his newly created race of male warriors, the Gargareans. It was created 300 nautical miles (560 km) from the island of Themyscira.
On the island Zeus created a kingdom city made of clear crystal and a river of gold. Zeus also provided the island with winged lions and winged horses so that the Gargareans could travel by air.
Famous quotes containing the words fictional and/or history:
“It is change, continuing change, inevitable change, that is the dominant factor in society today. No sensible decision can be made any longer without taking into account not only the world as it is, but the world as it will be.... This, in turn, means that our statesmen, our businessmen, our everyman must take on a science fictional way of thinking.”
—Isaac Asimov (1920–1992)
“You that would judge me do not judge alone
This book or that, come to this hallowed place
Where my friends’ portraits hang and look thereon;
Ireland’s history in their lineaments trace;
Think where man’s glory most begins and ends
And say my glory was I had such friends.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
