LGBTQIA+ in the Confoederatio Aemilia

The LGBTQIA+ community is considered to be an integral part of the society of the Confoederatio Aemilia. Perception of the community is overwhelmingly positive, and the national constitution explicitly bans lesbophobia, homophobia, biphobia, transphobia and aphobia. Many important people in the Aemilian Confederation are part of the nation's LGBTQIA+ community, including Princess Emilia Antoinette. As much as the LGBTQIA+ community is celebrated in Aemilia, it should be noted that this is not done at the expense of the cisgendered, heterosexual and allosexual people in the nation, who are cherished equally.
