Queen Amanirenas of Nubia, conqueror of the Romans. Queen Amanirenas ruled the area between the Nile and the Atbara River between 40-10BC. She was the second Queen of the Kush Kingdom, and was officially recognized as “Kandake” or Queen mother. At least Twenty-one queens are recorded as sole regent in the kingdom of Ethiopia until the 9th century CE, countering the white feminist assertion that all cultures have historically alienated women from power.
