"Love, that spark of light within man, can save the world.
I will stay and fight against hate, that darkness within us, for a world I know possible."
Princess Diana of Themyscira, daughter of Queen Hippolyta, was created with clay from Paradise Island and given life thanks to her father, Zeus. Then, she was granted six gifts from the Gods themselves: Great strength, wisdom and courage, a hunter's heart and communion with the animals, beauty and loving heart, sisterhood with fire, and speed and the ability of flight. Diana grew up with the Amazons, a race of warrior women isolated from the rest of the world, and lived in peace for hundreds of years. Until she overheard her mother talking about Man's World preparing for war. With the heart of compassion, she pleaded to go to Man's World but Hippolyta forbade her for speaking about Man's World.
So, she decided to disobey her mother and leave for Man's World. Diana snuck into the island's tower at night and stole the Amazonian sword and Themysciran shield, the Lasso of Hestia, the Bracelets of Submission, and Amazonian battle armor. Then, she encountered her mother in front of the dock knowing that her daughter was leaving. Hippolyta told her that leaving the island meant exile for life and gave her the tiara before saying her goodbye. Diana left behind her home island in order to save man from war and destruction. After spending a few days in the Mediterranean, a British-American spy, Steve Trevor, spotted Diana and her wooden ship drifting and managed to get her onto the cargo ship.
After their first encounter, Diana told him about wanting to help stop the war from happening but she was already too late. However, she wanted to help end the war as soon as possible. Steve Trevor introduced her to his task force designed to take down high ranking officers from the Central Powers and protecting civilians caught in between. Soon enough, the press learned about her and started to call her Wonder Woman. Then, the war ended and Diana planned on exploring the world with Steve Trevor. Of course, their plans changed when the Second World War began and it was different. With the rise of Hydra and Red Skull during the war, she saw herself working with Captain America for a while until he went missing somewhere in the North Atlantic Ocean.
When the war officially ended with the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Wonder Woman drew criticism from denouncing the bombings and it was enough for her to be barred from joining the Justice Society of America (despite being invited by Captain Marvel himself). And during McCarthyism, she almost was considered to be a Communist sympathizer over her comments if it wasn't her heroism and her lover, Steve Trevor. That era was a dark day for her as she saw Captain Marvel, a good friend, being called Communist sympathizers from supporting her statement, which banned him from partaking in the Korean War. But, she persisted in the matter. After that messy situation, the JSA basically became a puppet from the American government when Captain Atom joined to replace Captain Marvel and became their leader.
After that messy situation, Wonder Woman and Steve founded the World Veterans Federation to promote the well-being of veterans and victims of war worldwide. During the Cold War, she used WVF and her fame to call for the disarmament of nuclear weapons, especially after the Cuban Missile Crisis. And during the Nixon administration, the Justice Society of America was disbanded because of government regulation and proceedings. Then, Steve Trevor died in 1978 due to heart problems and Diana hid from the public eye to mourn. Thirty-three years later, she returned to the spotlight after 9/11 to help with the victims. Since there, she has been all over the world to protect the victims of war and chaos.

After fighting in two world wars and seeing mankind almost destroy themselves in the Cold War, Wonder Woman has increasingly grown tired of war and the suffer it often brings. She wants action to be taken in favor of peace, not increasing military budget or the nuclear arsenal, meaning that she needs to get political. Of course, she would still fight bad guys and kick ass doing so. But, it would be interesting to focus on the politics of this world. And there are many things I have in store for a Wonder Woman that partook in both World Wars and has been around for a hundred years.
C H A R A C T E R N O T E S:
The international community is still questioning what Wonder Woman's existent means to the world. The most powerful woman in the world with no constraints and allegiance to a nation. Even known it has been more than a hundred years, no government has dared try to stop her or question her since Wonder Woman kept her activities quiet. However, in a post 9/11 world, some governments of the world have considered establishing a rule book for her and other superheroes inspired by her actions. One country in particular, the United States of America, recently suggested forming a committee to study Wonder Woman and her actions throughout her time on Earth.
To answer the "Superhero Question."
And to everyone else in the world, Wonder Woman is a topic of discussion from dinner tables to universities; however, many people view her as a force of good.
She is considered to be the first superhero in history given stories of heroic actions during the First World War appeared in newspapers. And if it wasn't enough, the earliest photograph of Wonder Woman was taken after she saved the village of Nauroy from being destroyed with Steve Trevor and his squad. And as the result, dozens of media properties were made about Wonder Woman and her actions throughout both World Wars and beyond. To this day, media properties are still being made since it's her main source of income.
And while the Justice Society of America was a thing, the Soviet alternative was the People's Protectorate aka The Rocket Reds. Wonder Woman met with its members several time during the Cold War. Shortly after the JSA was disbanded, the The Rocket Reds were also disbanded for the same reasons. She has met with Red Guardian, Red Rocket, Red Widow, Red Bear (aka Mrs. Gradenko), Vostok, Darkstar, and plenty of other members. On the other side, the Justice Society of America, she has met with Captain Atom, Liberty Belle, Sandman, Starman, Wildcat, Golden Girl, Union Jack, and plenty of other heroes.

Diana Prince came awake in the dark and nearly got out of her bed as if she was already in a battle. Then, she realized that she was sleeping in a luxurious hotel room instead of the battlefield. Her dreams felt so real as if she was reliving those moments. But, it became difficult to tell which war she dreamt about. Each of the wars that Diana fought in were almost identical besides its locations and reasons why it began. All of them caused so much suffering and loss regardless of justified cause. She could have listened to her husband and lived a peaceful life after fighting in both world wars.
But, the world needed Wonder Woman.
And for seventy-four years, she started a new battle against the development of nuclear weaponry and the rising military-industrial complex. With help from her husband and the squad, the World Veterans Federation was founded with the goals of promoting world peace and protecting veterans. But it still wasn't enough. The greatest superpowers of the world during the Cold War nearly destroyed the world a few times. She wanted to do something before man did something incredibly stupid like nuking the entire world. However, her husband wanted to live his remaining years in peace and quiet with the woman she loved. So, she did.
Diana's train of thought was interrupted by a knock on the door. "Diana, are you awake?" a familiar voice was heard on the other side.
She got out of her bed and went over to the wardrobe room in order to change into her dress. Today was the day where she planned on giving a speech at the twenty-ninth general assembly of the WVF. Once she was done with the dress, she told the person to come on in while she walked to the bathroom to do clear up a little. Etta Candy, Diana's personal security, walked into the room with a little grin on her face. Despite being the cold hearted badass of the group, she loved to travel around the world principally Paris. "Are you ready for the debrief, madam?" Candy asked Diana while scanning the bedroom.
"Everyone's already here?" Diana asked confusedly while she was picking out the earrings.
"Of course, madam. It is an important day after all." Etta answered with a smile on her face before she straighten up when Diana came out. She looked beautiful as always, she thought with her eyes looking at the dress. She responded with a cough and said, "It looks good."
Before Diana could thank her security chief, she saw that her secretary had been staying there with her arms crossed and a grin on her face. Alana Dominguez was pretty damn good at her job given she was made responsible for most of the administrative work and decisions. Dominguez had served in the US military before going to school and getting her associate's degree a few years ago. Diana saw potential and hired her to be the new secretary. "Told you that dress looked good on you." Dominguez remarked.
"Well, good thing that I listened to you." Diana gave her a light-hearted smile before walking out of the room with Candy and Dominguez following behind. She knew that it was the same procedure year after year with a few minor changes here and there. Until she found that her chief legal officer, Rachel Keast, had the entire conference room to herself. Without any warning, Diana dismissed both Dominguez and Candy before walking into the room. She knew that something serious was going to happen if Keast was in Paris instead of the United States. "It will be only a few." Diana gave a forced smile before closing the door on them.
Then, she turned and looked at Keast trying to find the right words to say.
