Amazon Lily (アマゾン・リリー) is an island inhabited by a tribe of Kuja. The island is named after the real life flower Amazon Lily. It is also a reference the the Amazons of Greek myth, which the island's culture is heavily based on.

Layout
Amazon Lily is a jungle island located within the Calm Belt with a huge mountain in the middle. The mountain is carved with gigantic curved snake statues and the name of the native tribe of the island, Kuja, carved on it in Kanji. Within the center of mountain is a deep valley where the village of the Kuja can be found. The buildings in the village resembles the buildings of ancient China.

Culture
Due to the lack of men, the Kuja have to leave the island to have children. When they do have children, all of them are girls and they return to this island to have their daughters raised and nurtured by their society. They believe that strength equals beauty.

They are snake worshipers and many of the women carry very large snakes around their necks. Some of the warriors can even use their snakes to form bows, to allow them to fire arrows.

Due to the Calm Belt being infested by Sea Kings, Amazon Lily is naturally protected against outsiders. However, with new Kairoseki technologies invented by Dr. Vegapunk, this protection began to erode. As such, the only method to keep outsiders from entering is for the empress of the tribe, Boa Hancock, to become a Shichibukai, and sign a treaty with the World Government for the protection. This treaty would be nullified if Hancock refused to live up to her duties of the Shichibukai.
