Mahendradatta
This Indonesian queen ruled wisely and justly in life, and was deified as the embodiment of all evil after her death. The story of why gets a bit complicated.

To warn against the incoming British, this teen girl staged her own midnight ride - far longer and more dangerous…
Penta
When her brother of this fairytale princess decided to marry her, she warded him off by cutting off her own hands. Then she gave birth to a dog. It got weirder after that.
Naziq al-Abid
She traded a life of privilege for one spent fighting for justice on both literal and political battlefields so tirelessly that even exiling her five times couldn't keep her down.
Katie Sandwina
Champion weightlifter, suffragette, mom - this "Lady Hercules" did it all.

Yael
Saved the Jewish people by hammering a tent spike through an unsuspecting house guest's head.
Susan la Flesche Picotte

Princess Pyeonggang
