The Floating Island, also called Slaughter Island, was the home of Wonder Woman (Princess Nubia), its ruler in Mars' name.
History
The Floating Island is a realm perpetually girdled by concealing fog, where a tribe composed entirely of black men, except for Nubia, is dedicated to warrior training as faithful followers of the God of War. Just as the Amazons of Paradise Island follow Aphrodite's Law of love, the warriors of Floating Island follow Mars' Law of conquest.[1]
Nubia's domain is a drifting island — a natural arsenal completely at Mars' command, an arsenal which floats among the Seven Seas on any course the Olympian Czar of Combat chooses to steer it, and can also launch blazing fireballs from its single volcano as if it were a huge cannon.[2]

Trivia
- In the Prime Earth reality, the Floating Island is part of the Themyscira archipelago and through magic it levitates in the air and serves as Queen Nubia's transport through Man's World. The island is under the responsibility of the Amazons of Bana-Mighdall.[3] It was later revealed that it is called Floating Island of Irene.[4]
