This story is intended to be the first part of a fiction series featuring some inhabitants of a far planet named Elien. Life on that planet revolves around Female supremacy in a context of sadomasochism, religious sexuality and lesbianism.
Actually, this first part is divided in two subparts.
The first is an introduction that sets the scene. Some readers might find it somewhat complex, I thought however that it would be helpful in reading the next parts to come.
The second subpart is some sort of a snapshot of life on Elien. The next parts will be on that model, providing descriptions of various aspects of the existence the inhabitants of the Planet of Females.

Introduction
A planet, its inhabitants, and their special customs
Elien, a small planet in constellation Sappho, located at millions of light-years from Earth, has a mass equivalent to one hundredth of the Earth's. It enjoys an exceptionally mild tropical or near-tropical climate, without extremes or cataclysms, and is blessed by beautiful landscapes and a diverse topography. All year long, the global average temperature is about 72 degrees Fahrenheit. The planet's economy is based on trade, tourism, agriculture, cattle rearing, hunting and fishing. Natural resources are abundant. The total population is a little over 2 million people. For nearly a century, Elien is entirely dominated by the Female people, organized as a theocracy centered on the worship of Goddess Gynea [from the Greek gynos: "female"].
More than forty years ago, this Female people was able to conquer the fifth and last nation that was still free on the planet, composed mainly of masochistic males. This was a rather easy victory as its opponents were not broken to warfare. Most of the time, these males were submitting to their Female counterparts in their own nation, both in their everyday and sexual life, making the nation a weak entity deprived of any solid structure. After a brief war of two months at sea and on land, the Females were able to impose the armistice conditions. The males became their slaves, and their female fellow citizens suffered the same fate or were incorporated into the Female population after thorough scrutiny based on race. However most of the vanquished males were happy to submit to a new Female race. Since then, the Female people rules that last unconquered territory and, therefore, the entire planet.
Politically and administratively, the Queendom is divided into five provinces, each one under the authority of a Priestess-Governess. And the five Priestesses-Governesses are subordinate to Alpha, the High Priestess, who is also head of the planetary government and first delegate of Goddess Gynea. Alpha's palace is located in Gynepolis, capital of the Queendom, where 800,000 people - including the slaves - are living. It stands in the part of the city encompassing the Great Temple of Goddess Gynea and its dependencies. The Goddess is a human, mortal Female. Everything on the planet is centered on Her worship. A cruel and sadistic worship based on Female supremacy. Males are considered lowly creatures, ranked at the bottom hierarchical level. For the Females of Gynea, males are slaves used for work, breeding and sexual pleasure.
On Elien, the social structure under Goddess Gynea - the Supreme Being on Whom everybody and everything depends and to Whom everybody and everything is subordinate - comprises four levels. The highest level is the clergy, itself divided in two sub-levels, the high and low clergies. The high clergy, lead by the High Priestess Alpha, is made up of twenty priestesses, of whom fifteen live and officiate at the Great Temple of Gynepolis and five in the capitals of the five provinces, where there are also less grandiose temples. It leads all government affairs, similar to a ministerial cabinet, under a political body called the Sacerdotal Senate. The low clergy comprises two religious communities: the cloistered contemplative worshippers and the servants. The latter community is the only clergy group where males are admitted in a slave status. That second community also admits Females, albeit on a voluntary basis. Often, young Females receive the status of servant at the instigation of their families hoping that they might one day become contemplative worshippers or even priestesses. The three other social classes are the nobility, the bourgeoisie and the plebs, the latter comprising Female servants and male slaves.
The political regime of Gynea is entirely based on a religious foundation. Government decisions and the behavior of each and every citizen abide by the Ten Commandments of Goddess Gynea, which are sternly applied by the high clergy. The High Priestess and the twenty other priestesses also act as members of the Sacerdotal Senate. The five priestesses-governesses heading the five provinces are responsible for the application of the Law of Gynea and the edicts adopted by the Sacerdotal Senate sitting at the Great Temple of Gynepolis. The Ten Commandments of Goddess Gynea are based on three main pillars: an erotico-religious worship of the Goddess; the complete submission of all males to the Females without exception; and a life of perversions and sadomasochism.
Since the last decisive military victory, more than forty years ago, the Gynean regime is very efficient at pairing and mixing its gynerotic-theological and economic components. As a result, the health of the economy is good, thanks to the abundant natural resources and to the wisdom of the Females in power.
Marriage is permitted only between Females. Although polygyny is allowed, as per the Law of Gynea, a Female having more than one spouse must ensure their care and subsistence. As a result, polygynous unions are almost exclusive to the nobility as they involve a high standard of living, although it is sometimes seen in some bourgeois households.
The population's reproductive capacity is maintained by breeding with male slaves meeting specific physiological conditions. Representatives of the Gynean Government across the planet make sure that these conditions are met. For instance, each time a married Female couple wishes a pregnancy, the selection of the biological father must be approved by one of these representatives. The Ministry of Population has a demography unit that monitors the population level both globally and in each province. When needed, it can launch breeding programs or, inversely, prohibit breeding when the population level is considered too high. Also, population movements can be imposed in order to balance the demography across the planet for economic reasons. When a Female gives birth to a male child, that child automatically becomes a slave, and he can be sent away from his birthplace to serve where needed. The slaves can be assigned a multitude of tasks, such as the low daily-life chores like the cleaning and maintenance of homes and the care of Mistresses' assets and belongings, the care of horses and cattle, or military or guard duties, to name a few. Slaves of both sexes can breed among themselves, except that some specially selected males are kept to impregnate Females. Given Her sacred nature, Goddess Gynea is never impregnated by any male, and therefore has no descendants.
When Goddess Gynea deceases, the High Priestess takes Her place and Her name, and a new High Priestess is elected by a majority vote of the Sacerdotal Senate. When there is a vacancy among the Priestesses, names of candidates are submitted by high nobility sponsors. The election of a new Priestess is performed by the Sacerdotal Senate sitting in conclave by the rule of majority of voices. Once She obtains Her sacred status, the new Goddess does not deal any more with profane state business. She now lives to be worshipped, to devote Herself to Her pleasures, deviances and perversions without any limit, and to use Her power of life or death over every and all of Her subjects. She spends most of Her time in Her quarters at the Great Temple but She deigns to minimally mingle with Gyneans on special occasions and, even then, mostly to privileged relatives of members of the high clergy or of noble families.
According the the Gynean law, Goddess Gynea has property rights over each and every citizen of the planet. Naturally, She is very fond of Females. She likes to change often Her Female toys, sometimes every day, sometimes after a few weeks depending on the pleasure Her current toy gives Her. Hence, all over the planet, if a Priestess or any member of the high society sees a Female over 18 years old who might be appealing to the Goddess for any reason, she can take steps to have her sent to the Great Temple of Gynepolis to be used for the Goddess's pleasure.
In fact, parents of the high society often strive to have their daughters chosen as toys for the Goddess. When it happens, they show their pride to friends, acquaintances and family. Furthermore, all former sex toys of the Goddess are entitled to a hefty life pension but have to remain in either the Great Temple convent if they live in Gynepolis or in the temple of their state capital. Some could hope to be admitted to the low clergy when vacancies arise.
In the Gynean society, high-ranked Females of the clergy and nobility are very fond of black male slaves from the Nari people, in the equatorial region, for several reasons. These males are exceptionally athletic and enduring, they adorn long and thick penises, and, most of all, they have a masochistic temperament that makes them docile and submissive beings. The breeders (also called sires), the temple guards and the elite soldiers of the Gynean Army all come from this group of slaves. Some are trained to become work or pleasure horses. Once broken, they are harnessed for farm work or for use with carriages. Noble Females and temple authorities keep them in stables. Some other male slaves become gladiators, used in the violent games held regularly in the numerous arenas around the planet.
As a matter of fact, each year, on the birthday of the Goddess and during the whole preceding week, games are held at the Lesboseum in Gynepolis, which has a capacity of 100,000 people. The state generously provides free food and drinks as well as entertainment to all Gynean Females for the whole duration of these major holidays. The day of the Goddess Birthday Games, the Lesboseum is packed, as this is the only day of the year where Gynean Females can enjoy all the sexual perversities promoted by the regime and freely let go their deviances and kinks in public, for the pleasure of the Goddess, Who attends the celebrations along with Her followers behind the sheer white veils of Her Sacred Box in the Lesboseum. It is the only time during the year that the Goddess appears in public, although concealed.
