Princess Diana Trevor was indigenous to the reality commonly referred to as Classic Earth-Two. Earth Two is now the primary nomenclature used to refer to the antimatter universe Earth which is populated by the Crime Syndicate of AmeriKa, the modern version of the Pre-Crisis Earth-Three criminal organization.
Princess Diana Trevor has been seen in the current reality on several occasions after the Crisis, though mostly as an apparition rather than as a physical being.

History

Diana found Steve Trevor, an American sailor who washed ashore when his ship was destroyed by Nazis. She assisted the Allies as Wonder Woman during World War II posing as a nurse named Diana Prince. She later joined the JSA and the All-Star Squadron. Eventually, Diana married Steve Trevor and gave birth to a daughter named Hippolyta "Lyta" Trevor. Lyta grew up to become the superheroine Fury of Infinity, Inc.

Powers

Known Powers: Princess Diana Trevor as the recipient of the "Powers of the gods" (earlier text state her powers come from "Amazon concentration") had obvious superhuman speed, strength, agility and accuracy.
Her superhuman speed and agility were supposedly as fast as the god Mercury but usually less than the Earth 2 Flash who was known to break the time barrier under his own power.
Originally she was immortal. But in order to remain in "man's world" after her mission was deemed over by her mother, she had to give up her immortality to remain in her chosen area and began to age as a normal human.
Known Abilities: Diana had the ability to glide on the wind current which erroniously gave many the idea that she could actually fly. This was inaccurate as she needed air currents in order to do this feat and had to be at a much higher locale than that she started at. She could NOT jump up into the open air high enough to launch herself in this manner unlike Kal-L. She rarely used this ability, preferring to mostly depend on her advanced invisible plane to travel long distances at extensive speeds.
Strength Level: Attributed to be embued with the strength of Hercules, the Earth-Two Wonder Woman had obvious superhuman strength levels where she was seen ripping locked steel doors off their bolts and lifting elephants off the ground with ease. While she was extensively strong, she was routinely shown to be far less than that of the Earth 2 Superman Kal-L unlike the current primary Wonder Woman incarnation who seems to be more of a match to the current primary Superman who is easily multi-megaton level.

Miscellaneous

Equipment: Bracelets of Submission; Lasso of Truth
Transportation: Invisible Robot Plane
Weapons: Tiara

Notes

The Earth Two Wonder Woman survived the Crisis on Infinite Earths, and went to live among the Pre-Crisis Gods of Mount Olympus along with husband, Gen Steve Trevor. When the Gods of Olpmpus and their seperate native dimension are seen after the Crisis, the Earth Two Wonder Woman and Trevor are no longer there nor recalled by the Gods indicating that the Crisis affected all levels of reality, not just the physical world.

In the Pre-Crisis continuity, Wonder Woman and Steve Trevor gave birth to a daughter named Hippolyta Trevor. Hippolyta (Lyta for short) became a member of the Earth-Two super-hero team, Infinity, Inc. In the Post-Crisis continuity, the war-time Wonder Woman and Steve Trevor were rendered apocryphal and Lyta's parentage was retconned to include Helena Kosmatos, the Golden Age Fury.
