Christianopolis is a utopian novel written by Johann Valentin Andreae in 1619. The book describes a fictional city named Christianopolis, which is based on Christian principles and values.

The citizens of Christianopolis live according to strict moral codes, and their society is built on principles of justice, equality, and compassion. The book explores themes of religious faith, social justice, and the ideal society.
