The answer

QUEEN

What queen means

A female monarch who rules a country, or the wife or widow of a king.

Where the word comes from

Queen comes from Old English "cwen," originally meaning a woman or wife, which descended from Proto-Germanic "kweniz." The word's sense narrowed to denote the wife of a king, then expanded to include a woman ruling in her own right. Cognates appear across Germanic languages, suggesting roots in ancient Indo-European words for woman.
