@@meganmendoza7026 The Virgin Queen and the entire Dynasty of the Camelot era had epic female leaders , didn't even get a mention poorly produced this clip 👎👎👎
I was thinking the same thing. At 1st, I was thinking either Elizabeth the 1st or Cleopatra is #1 but Catherine the Great? Hmm. Then Elizabeth II wasn't on the top 10.
Right, Elizabeth, who had an immensely successful 40 years on the throne had NO original policies or thoughts but happened to "get credit" for what Mary did /s. Mary died after a mere five years on the throne and she didn't accomplish much beyond a (very temporary) restoration of Catholicism. She was merely the wife of Philip of Spain, while Elizabeth I beat the Spanish Armada and established England as a great seafaring power, which it would be for several hundred more years Sorry,, but Mary didn't have that kind of vision.@@candicehoneycutt4318
What about her? She married her first cousin, gave him about a dozen inbred children and then when he died she plunged the country into mourning. All the changes that happened in the UK happened inspite of her not because of her, she didn't give a sod about the British public and only cared about getting her mongral children into places of power throughout Europe.
Surely both Elizabeth I and Victoria should be on this list - if not at the top of the list? How can both be missing given their roles in the world of their time? Victoria ruled over the largest empire of all time. Elizabeth I defeated the major world power of the time, Spain. And Elizabeth II not in the top 10? Also, where are native American women? Or Boudica? Joan of Arc? Benazir Bhutto? Mother Theresa? Angela Merkel? To name but a few.
While I agree with you in that statement, she's more recent than some of these powerful women from the past. If the list featured just women from the 20th and 21st centuries, I think she'd definitely be in the top 5!
Not surprised to see Catherine the Great at the top. I was surprised the Catherine D'Medici and Elizabeth I weren't on the list. I love seeing my fave history badass Hatshepsut at number 2. I was happy to see a well rounded list. Good job for not making the list completely Eurocentric.
Catherine the great has been my inspiration for years and I know that she wasn't on the list but Elizabeth the first because she defeated the Spanish Armada in a man dominated world as well being the first Tudor queen (Not counting her mom and 4 step-mothers)
Elizabeth was the second Tudor Queen to rein in her own right (or third if you count Queen Jane's 9 day rein). Elizabeth's sister Mary the 1st was the first official Tudor Queen.
@@floss3729 I meant for the first Protestant tudor queen to reign and I know that Lady Jane Grey ruled for 9 days but I don't count her since her husband wanted to take control
Isabel I no derrotó a la Armada Invencible, fue una tormenta; poco después Felipe II mandó rearmar su flota y atacó las costas inglesas tomando varias ciudades, así que no hay punto para la reina inglesa
As famous as Cleopatra was, I think Wu Zetian should’ve been in 3rd because Wu actually ruled China during a time where women had no power, whatsoever. She did not depended on another ruler to secure her power and she was smart enough to expand her territory and the empire thrived under her. In addition, she didn’t grow up as a princess. She planned her way up from a lowly concubine to queen. She was smart and brave. She also lived into her old age, which is not so common in her time as an emperor.
What happened to Queen Elizabeth the First??? Defeating the Spanish Armada was not enough to impress??? And everything else she did and over came??? Boy, she is my favorite Queen of Great Britain! N
I felt like i was in school with this top, how great it was! Thanks, Kristen, and a happy thursday afternoon to you as well. Take care and God bless you, greetings from Colombia to you as well.
strange Sofia of Anhalt-Zerbst is even featured here, considering the current geo-political climate also why is the Ukrainian Hürrem Sultan not on this list
Rey: “I am the most powerful woman of the Galaxy!” Scarlet Witch: “No, I am the most powerful of the Multiverse!” Cleopatra: “Get out of here, you maniacs!”
It was not Thutmoses III who tried to erase Hatshepsut as it Happed very late in his reign when his son Amenhotep II wanted to destroy any clain by Hatshepsut's family to the throne
How about Rani laxmibai of jhansi, Maharani didda of kashmir, Rani durgavati of gondvana....and so on....these were the real women warriors and empress of India Make a video on them too.. ❤ No hate for these great queens too...❤
18 and 9. Marrying an uncle and forced to put a woman on the throne since having no sons all remind me of House of the Dragon (or Fire and Blood as it's really called).
I guess this list only contained women in power who have already deceased, otherwise I would question putting Margret Thatcher on but skipping Angela Merkel.
I wished the Celtic Queen Boudicca was on here. She was a warrior queen that led an army to attack the Roman empire. The Celts lost, but she was fierce.
Algunas de esas mujeres no las conocía (como Yaa Asantewa o Lady K'abel por ejemplo) Isabel de Castilla sólo fue reina de Castilla, fue su nieto Carlos I quien reunificò los reinos de la Península Ibérica (salvo Portugal) en un solo reino, ya que a la muerte de sus abuelos los Reyes Católicos y de sus tíos maternos (su prima María Tudor era heredera al trono inglés), él heredó tanto la corona de Castilla como la de Aragón (estipulado en el testamento de Fernando el Católico) Y bueno, faltan Isabel I de Inglaterra, Nefertiti, Boudica reina de los icenos, las sultanas Hurrem o Kosem, incluso Victoria I del Reino Unido
Livia (wife of Augustus) should have been on the list before Agripina. Truly more manipulative. powerful and running the show behind the scenes that lasted generations. Without Livia, there would have been no Agripina, nor many of the other rulers that came after Julius Caesar.
How is Queen Victoria not on this list? She ruled the biggest empire ever and she literally built it to be the biggest empire! It's quite sad how ridiculous this list is
Shocked at the absence of two women who could easily have been in the top 10 but aren't because the Anglosphere is unaware of them (and don't have to cater to diversity); Padshah Begum Jahanara and Padshah Begum Nur Jahan, who directly and indirectly influenced the lives of millions in the most staggeringly vibrant, diverse and prosperous empire in the world and were the most influential women in the world during their respective reigns.
Anglosphere left out two of the most important English rulers Elizabeth I and Victoria. And not mention the rebel queen Boudica. Trying to see the anglosphere here

cleopatra and queen victoria
Anne Boleyn, Mary Queen of Scots and Queen Elizabeth Ist and also Frida Kahlo
Why ain't i on the list though? I opened my firts pickle jar at the big age of 5 and yes i am what they call a woman. So disapointing😔
@@meganmendoza7026 The Virgin Queen and the entire Dynasty of the Camelot era had epic female leaders , didn't even get a mention poorly produced this clip 👎👎👎
@@punter1 I know right
I'm really surprised that Queen Elizabeth the first wasn't on this list. She ushered in a golden age for England through a bunch of turmoil.
I was thinking the same thing. At 1st, I was thinking either Elizabeth the 1st or Cleopatra is #1 but Catherine the Great? Hmm. Then Elizabeth II wasn't on the top 10.
Doesn't matter. Most of these stories are made up.
Its insane that Elizabeth I isnt in the top 5. Cathetine the Great, Cleopatra and others I. cant argue against but seriously
And got snoop dogg out of jail. We must not forget such unforgettable efforts.😢
Because she lost most of her Empire under her reign. The British monarchy is mostly a figurehead now
I would have liked to have seen Elizabeth I & Nefertiti on this list
Same here
A lot of the things Elizabeth I got the credit for were things Mary I laid the groundwork for before she passed.
I know one of them was establishing colonies in North America@@candicehoneycutt4318
Cierto 😊

Queen Elizabeth I? And where is Boudica? And Nefertiti?
How could you possibly leave out Elizabeth I?
How about Queen Victoria?
IKR😐

Elizabeth the first (I) should be number one and you didn't even include her!!

Except Elizabeth 1
None of them hold any significant powers
Seriously, Elizabeth 1 not listed? Incredible
You need a second list. There's more. ❤️
Queen Elizabeth II is someone we all saw rule in our lives, she should have been in top 5. She was 'The Queen' around the world.
While I agree with you in that statement, she's more recent than some of these powerful women from the past. If the list featured just women from the 20th and 21st centuries, I think she'd definitely be in the top 5!
😢what about me? I am mrs pikle jar opener mothers across the globe call me to open there pickle jars
@@Wassupmeha true queen
But in a time where the monarch's power is limited.
Missed Elizabeth I on the List 😮
Not surprised to see Catherine the Great at the top. I was surprised the Catherine D'Medici and Elizabeth I weren't on the list. I love seeing my fave history badass Hatshepsut at number 2. I was happy to see a well rounded list. Good job for not making the list completely Eurocentric.
Especially Catherine Demedici who outlived her rivals and went from being a forgotten, humiliated wife to the power behind her sons.
Victoria is my rant at this list.
Thanks for have Queen Amanirenas on this list! She does not get recognized enough❤
What? Where is Elizabeth 1?
Yeah she should be #1 and Catherine #2
And just where is Queen Victoria?
Isabelle wasn't kind to Jews. She should have left them alone too. Queen Esther should have been on the list.
Catherine the great has been my inspiration for years and I know that she wasn't on the list but Elizabeth the first because she defeated the Spanish Armada in a man dominated world as well being the first Tudor queen (Not counting her mom and 4 step-mothers)

Margrethe the first of Denmark - The kalmarunion
This lady also should be on this list

'I bore six girls, five boys, and 31 connubial years of you' lmao that's ice cold
🔥

Where’s QE1?
Queen Elizabeth the 1st is not just an oversight, but a rather glaring mistake. Maybe it's because she's sooo well known?
I felt like i was in school with this top, how great it was! Thanks, Kristen, and a happy thursday afternoon to you as well. Take care and God bless you, greetings from Colombia to you as well.
Margareth Thatcher above Queen Elizabeth II. Damn MsMojo.
strange Sofia of Anhalt-Zerbst is even featured here, considering the current geo-political climate
also why is the Ukrainian Hürrem Sultan not on this list
Brilliant! I'd rather if it included Olga of Kyiv, Queen Elizabet I, Queen Victoria and Rudrama Devi from India too.
Actually she was 'that gandhi's' god-daughter
Great video, some I never heard of.
Thanks for watching!
Number one is my wife! And try to tell her otherwise!!!
Thatcher was a very polarizing woman!
Capital punishment for sexual assault? Good job Theodora.
Rey: “I am the most powerful woman of the Galaxy!”
Scarlet Witch: “No, I am the most powerful of the Multiverse!”
Cleopatra: “Get out of here, you maniacs!”
😂❤
kösem? hürrem? mihrimah? where are they?
I said the same thing. You can't start and be part of the sultanate of women without being a powerful woman
The number one belonged to Elizabeth I.
Why is QEI not on this list? In the States, they make more movies about her than anyone else!
Saori Kido (Athena) 🔮
Thank you. I needed this today.❤
Bhagamati (Hyder Mahal) was a queen of Sultan Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah, in whose honor Hyderabad was supposedly named.
It was not Thutmoses III who tried to erase Hatshepsut as it Happed very late in his reign when his son Amenhotep II wanted to destroy any clain by Hatshepsut's family to the throne
Really enjoyed this vid can we have a part2 🙏🏿
What a great list. ❤
I agree that the list is great, but I was a bit surprised not to see Queen Seondeok of Silla.
I'm surprised Queen Victoria isn't in the list.
What about Marilyn Monroe ???
should of had Domina of rome on the list
a crime to not put Elizabeth the first on here. She was way better than the second in power amounts
I was surprised that Boudica wasn't included on this list.
I learned so much about women thank you 😊
Umm, what about Elizabeth 1, hurrem sultan, kosem sultan, mirhimah sultan, or even any other members of the sultanate of women from the Ottoman empire
The queen should’ve been number 1 in my opinion
How about Rani laxmibai of jhansi, Maharani didda of kashmir, Rani durgavati of gondvana....and so on....these were the real women warriors and empress of India
Make a video on them too.. ❤
No hate for these great queens too...❤
Where's MrMojo?
18 and 9. Marrying an uncle and forced to put a woman on the throne since having no sons all remind me of House of the Dragon (or Fire and Blood as it's really called).
Need more list as there more women who not on list for me one of them was Margrethe the 1
HOW COULD YOU NOT PUT QUEEN ELIZABETH II IN THE TOP 5?! AND HOW COULD YOU FORGET QUEEN ELIZABETH I AND QUEEN VICTORIA?!
I appreciate the comment that not all female leaders are good
Where is Hurrem Sultana, Kosem sultan , Elizabeth I , Nefertiti ??? So many women
Queen Elizabeth the first and Queen Victoria?
My favorite ruler is Catherine The Great, who I'm named after.
Where is Miriam Defensor Santiago from the Philippines?🤔
So no Elizabeth I, Victoria, Eva Peron or Princess Diana????
Except Elizabeth 1
None of them were actually leaders
Hurrem Sultan and Anne Bolyen
You stole sound bite from another TH-cam channel hosted by Simon Whistler!!!
❤️❤️❤️
I guess this list only contained women in power who have already deceased, otherwise I would question putting Margret Thatcher on but skipping Angela Merkel.
No Livia Druscilla :(
You forgot to include Toni Gonzaga of the PH. Her husband claimed that his wife is the most powerful celebrity. Check her out.
Yaa Asantewaa 🇬🇭 🇬🇭
Where is hurrem sultan
Queen Elizabeth the first and Queen Victoria should have been on this list.
I wished the Celtic Queen Boudicca was on here. She was a warrior queen that led an army to attack the Roman empire. The Celts lost, but she was fierce.
Queen Elizabeth II was such an icon ✨🕊️
Aaaaaahhhh The Famous Spanish Inquisition 😂
All of these women were awesome in their own right, but none of them were perfect!
No Joan of Arc?
Algunas de esas mujeres no las conocía (como Yaa Asantewa o Lady K'abel por ejemplo)
Isabel de Castilla sólo fue reina de Castilla, fue su nieto Carlos I quien reunificò los reinos de la Península Ibérica (salvo Portugal) en un solo reino, ya que a la muerte de sus abuelos los Reyes Católicos y de sus tíos maternos (su prima María Tudor era heredera al trono inglés), él heredó tanto la corona de Castilla como la de Aragón (estipulado en el testamento de Fernando el Católico)
Y bueno, faltan Isabel I de Inglaterra, Nefertiti, Boudica reina de los icenos, las sultanas Hurrem o Kosem, incluso Victoria I del Reino Unido
Catherine the Great was one awesome woman!
And where is hurram sultan
Girl Power!
Top 10 past and present female presidents
Angela Merkel? No Asian women? Joan of Arc? Eva Peron? Eleanor Roosevelt?
What about the Sultanas…….
Indra Gandhi's bodyguards were Sihk and she had previously ordered an attack, on the holy site of their religion, the Golden Temple of Amritsar.
Should have included Sheikh Hasina in this
Elizabeth I of England should have been # 1 and you didn't even include her
😂
Al jazia Al hilaliya und Semsi ❤
Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!
Livia (wife of Augustus) should have been on the list before Agripina. Truly more manipulative. powerful and running the show behind the scenes that lasted generations. Without Livia, there would have been no Agripina, nor many of the other rulers that came after Julius Caesar.
If Elizabeth 2 was on the list, where was Victoria or Elizabeth 1? QE2 was long lived but really was t terribly powerful
Kösem should be on this list
Wu Xeitan was a badass woman!
How is Queen Victoria not on this list? She ruled the biggest empire ever and she literally built it to be the biggest empire! It's quite sad how ridiculous this list is
This is the real list of Girl Power right here.
EVITA 💪🏿
Interfering with religious preferences is unacceptable.
