Eutopia with significant elements of satire. Good climate, plenty without labor. Spiders produce the material used for clothing. Women are free to choose their partners from age fifteen and are simply accepted or not by the man. No law and one judge with complete authority who is blindfolded in court. No religious conflicts. Monarchy.
