Lilliput

Lilliput is a fictional island from Jonathan Swift's satirical novel "Gulliver's Travels." It is inhabited by tiny people, about six inches tall. The story uses Lilliput to explore themes like politics, society, and human nature through humorous and critical observation. The inhabitants have their own customs, government, and conflicts, paralleling the complexities of larger societies. As a setting, Lilliput provides a unique perspective on human behavior by magnifying political disputes and social structures in a miniature world, serving as a satirical mirror to the issues of Swift's own time.
