Queen: Difference between revisions

{{FIM|Queen Chrysalis}} was the ruler of the [[Changeling]]s for an unspecified period of time. It's possible that the tradition of Queen rulership in [[Hippogriff civilization]] dates back many thousands of years as well, as Hippogriffs were among the oldest civilizations in all the world, and had unified governments long before any other civilization.<ref name = "TOMSB">[[The Official Movie Sourcebook]]"</ref> After {{FIM|Princess Celestia}} and {{FIM|Princess Luna}} passed rule of Equestria over to her, {{FIM|Twilight Sparkle}} was referred to as a queen, specifically [[Queen of Equestria]].

 

The oldest known Queen was [[Queen Cleopatrot]] of the (presumed) [[Anugypt]]ian kingdom who ruled thousands of years prior to the [[Fateful day]].<ref name = "FIM52">{{Cite comic book|series=FIM|issue=52|story="[[Shadow Saga]]"|page=|panel=|quote=}}</ref> Cleopatrot appeared to be held in just-as-high regard as another Anugyptian monarch named "[[King Anubis]]".<ref name = "FIM24">{{Cite comic book|series=FIM|issue=24|story=|page=|panel=|quote=}}</ref> Unlike Anubis, Cleopatrot didn't appear to be a cruel and unreasonable ruler, but still appeared to be selfish in her own regard.<ref name = "FIM52"/>

 

In [[The Mysterious South]], the kingdom of [[Abyssinia]] was ruled by a ruling family of both [[Abyssinian king|king]] and [[Abyssinian queen|queen]], both of whom seemed equal, though the queen's more assertive, brave and intelligent personality may have made her the "dominant" monarch.<ref name = "PRE1">{{Cite comic book|series=PRE|issue=1|story="Storm King"|page=|panel=|quote=}}</ref>

 

 

"[[Empress]]es" appear to be the equivalent of queens.
