Ok. We did pretty good going through the alphabet and naming rulers. In fact, I was might impressed with some of the more obscure names that arose.
Here is another one I want to see if you can do. How many women rulers can you name? I have a list here and I want to see if you can find any that I don't have and see how many you can name that I do have.
Good luck.

Now, how about Asian women rulers, though you touched with the Philippines one.
