The most powerful piece in chess… is a woman.
But it wasn’t always like that.
This video uncovers the hidden feminist history of the chess queen — from her weak beginnings as a Persian vizier, to her explosive rise during the Renaissance, and finally, to her role as a cultural symbol of women’s power.
Across centuries, the queen on the board mirrored real queens in history — Eleanor of Aquitaine, Isabella of Castile — and became one of the earliest icons of female authority in a male-dominated world.
👉 Stay until the end to see how historians, grandmasters, and even pop culture (The Queen’s Gambit) turned the queen into more than a piece of wood — but a symbol of gender and power.
