"Whosa dis?"
"I am Queen Amidala…"
Boss Nass and Queen Padmé Amidala[3]

A queen was the female ruler of a monarchy. The male equivalent was the king.

History[]

"I wasn't the youngest queen ever elected. But now that I think back on it, I'm not sure I was old enough. I'm not sure I was ready."
―Padmé Amidala[8]

On Naboo, the queen ruled the planet as an elected leader.[3] Yram,[9] Réillata,[10] Sanandrassa,[11] Padmé Amidala,[3] Jamillia,[8] Neeyutnee,[12] Apailana,[13] and Sosha Soruna[14] all served as Queen of Naboo.

Several other worlds, such as Alderaan,[6] Bardotta,[1] Hynestia Prime,[15] Ktath'atn,[7] Livorno,[16] Rendel,[17] Sarka,[18] Aeos Prime,[19] and Zygerria, also had some form of monarchy ruled by a queen.[4]

The planet Eiram was, during at least two points in the High Republic Era, ruled by a Queen Regnant and her wife, the Queen Consort.[20] The Queen Regnant was the true ruler of the planet, though the Queen Consort often had her own governmental duties such as serving as an advisor or diplomat.[21]

During the Clone Wars, Zygerria and its slave empire were ruled by Queen Miraj Scintel,[4] until she was killed by Count Dooku,[22] and Queen Julia reigned over Bardotta.[1]

Breha Organa was the Queen of Alderaan, until the planet's destruction by the Galactic Empire's Death Star during the Galactic Civil War. Following Breha's death and the destruction of Alderaan many surviving Alderaanians viewed Breha's adoptive daughter Princess Leia Organa as their queen. One such Alderaaian was Evaan Verlaine a former student of Breha's.[6]

Vader-vs-Queen

Sith Lord Darth Vader stands against a Geonosian queen.

The Geonosians also had queens, including Karina the Great who served as the secret leader of the Stalgasin hive.[23]

Princess Trios of Shu-Torun became the new monarch of her homeworld shortly after her father and older siblings were murdered by Darth Vader's assassin droids, BT-1 and 0-0-0.[2]

Some female individuals of the Yalbec species were recognized as queens. During an insurrection on Yalbec Prime, a clone commando squad known as Clone Force 99 met one of these queens, whose stinger was cut off by a soldier named Wrecker. The stinger of a Yalbec queen was considered by some people as a delicacy.[24]
