Supayalat

Description: (Queen)
Supayalat, the last queen of Burma, ruled alongside King Thibaw during the Konbaung dynasty. She orchestrated a massacre of royal family members to cement her power and enforced a shift from polygamy to monogamy in royal customs. Supayalat's reign was notorious for her cruelty, excessive pride, and reputation for brutality. Her actions were seen as a cautionary tale of how a woman's rule could lead to a kingdom's downfall at the hands of imperialists.
