Read a random definition: co-obligee

A quick definition of queen:

Queen: A woman who is the ruler of a country, like a king. She has a lot of power and is in charge of making important decisions. Sometimes, a queen is the wife of a king, but she doesn't have as much power as a queen who rules on her own. If the king is too young to rule, a queen can rule in his place. A dowager-queen is a queen who used to be married to a king who has passed away.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A queen is a woman who holds the highest position of power in a monarchy. There are different types of queens:

  1. Queen Regnant: A woman who possesses the sovereignty and royal power in her own right. Examples include Queen Mary I, Queen Elizabeth I, Queen Victoria, and Queen Elizabeth II.
  2. Queen Consort: The wife of a reigning king who has some royal prerogatives but is legally no different from the rest of the king's subjects. An example is Queen Elizabeth, the wife of King George VI.
  3. Queen Regent: A woman who rules in place of the actual sovereign, such as if the sovereign is a child. An example is Queen Isabella I of Castile, who ruled in place of her daughter Joanna.
  4. Dowager-Queen: A queen who is the widow of a king. An example is Queen Alexandra, the widow of King Edward VII.

These examples illustrate the different types of queens and their roles in a monarchy.
