Highest ranking woman in YN?

[New Emeline]

The current President of New Emeline is a woman.

[Happy Christian Land]

EDIT - I’ve decided. See new post below.

[Freilibre]

Her Majesty Queen Margrett IXX holds the Crown, and she does have some power in the government.

[Free Corsairs]

The captain of the ship The Greedy Strumpet—Amira X—is the most powerful women—if not the most powerful person—in the Fleet of Free Corsairs. Commanding one of the most notorious ships of the Fleet, her influence is considerable—and as a representative on the ruling Council, she has the ability to make herself amply heard. Furthermore, her role as the unofficial author of Council ordinances gives her considerable influence over the organization of Fleet activities, and her anarchist pamphlets are some of the most read literature for Corsairs.

[Estado Novo Portugues]

The Ecclesiastical State does not have women in its leadership positions. But there are women in some positions of authority, like school teachers.

[Vistora]

As Chief Executive of Vistora and Chairwoman of the United Nations Board of Arbitration, Rila Halicon is certainly the most powerful individual person in Vistora, if not by extension the world entire. Her enumerated and explicated powers aside, she commands significant respect and influence in many national and international edifices of power, public and private, thus setting her apart even in the luminary history of her offices as a person of preeminence.

[Diarcesia]

Hady of Staur, one of the Triarchs who are just below the Monarch Phlegomy in Diarcesia's leadership.

[Alexandregia]

Nobility: Grand Duchess and Empress Catherine de Concepcion
Non-nobility: Dominus, Mariana Magallanes (1808-1816)

[Newne Carriebean7]

Who is the highest ranking woman in your nation's government or political system?
In terms of royalty, we've had Queens Anne I, Mary I, II, Sarah I, II as the leaders of our nation from various eras in our history, with the most famous being Queen Mary II, who was known as the queen from 1948 until a military coup in 1960 placed the Carriebean Revolutionary Army in charge of the nation as a carriebeanian communist multi party military republican state.

Carol Dartenby, a former Congresswoman of the state of New Pennsleslavkia from 1992-1995 and again from 2001-2004 moved herself up the political power ladder to a known speaker and Majority Whip of the Pirate Party from 2005 until 2015, when she ran for the office of presidency and won by over 5 million votes with a split electorate comprising of over eight different candidates with varying degrees of support. However, he term of office was marred by scandal after scandal by corrupt politicians and leaders. By March of 2017, President Dartenby was on trial for corruption charges, having the charges pass the Congress but not the Parliament, ending the discussion of impeachment, causing incredible outcry for her to be arrested. She also dismissed roughly 90% of Parliament and most of her corrupt cabinet ministers,which made her look like she had been caught red handed for corruption. She finally was out of office via an emergency election which saw the second female president enter into the corruption filled office.

Speaking of corruption, Antrés Depuís had been caught peddling Sais and regional funds for various ticketed items and spending that money instead on her cronies and political supporters of her presidency. She even used taxpayer dollars to fund "agricultural projects" for Cosa Nostra crime gangs in protecting properties and harassing her political opponents with the gangsters. When Congressional Impeachment hearings began, many of the corrupt cronies of Depuís resigned en mass from the cabinet, emboldening the opposition parties to go through with the hearings. After the corruption charges were brought up and confirmed by Congress, they moved on to a majority approval in Parliament, which then saw the corruption charges of impeachment to the Regional Representational Councils, which agreed fullheartedly in a 5,524-1,079 vote (897 abstaining) The two final hurdles, a majority concurrence by the National People's Court and a referendum by the people of Carriebean to agree to impeach the president were met by November 1st,2017, with President Antrés Depuís signing the resignation letter the next day.

[Second Empire of America]

Our current highest ranking woman is Kamala Harris, our Minister of Justice. We have not had a female ruler yet, but Harriett Tubman was appointed Heir to the Imperial Throne for four years. (She died of old age two years before the Emperor who appointed her.)

[Happy Christian Land]

The Most Reverend Blythe Ainsley Harrington-Smythe III is Happy Christian Land’s first female head of state, as well as the second female primate in the Anglican Communion (the first being the Most Reverend Katharine Jefferts Schori, former leader of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America).

[S i t k a]

The highest ranking woman in Sitka is the current president, a vampire named Larisa Anndrasdan. With female rulers outside of royalty uncommon and vampiric rulers nearly unheard of, it is little surprise that she is the first female vampire in our world to be a head of state.

[Prussian Polish Commonwealth]

With royal blood?
That would be Princess/Unteroffizier Maria von Hohenzollern.

[Berhakonia]

Politically?

Currently none, Queen-consorts are all on equal standing across each of the seven Federal Kingdoms, and the Emperor's wife is certainly no exception to the rule. There are a few female senators in Congress and one female supreme judge.

[Dagnia]

Currently, our Vice Chief Executive, Alina Żukovskaja , is the highest ranking woman in the country. In the past, there were Chief Executives who were women.

[Thaideland]

Due to the fact that all women throughout the region of Homieland are sent to Homieland Women Farms (HWFs) at the age of 13, there are no women to be in positions of power in Thaideland.

I've got more information on this in a dispatch, if anyone wants to know more about the HWFs.

[The Atlantean Islands]

That would be HM, Queen Alessa.

[Axuva]

The President.

[Sezraha]

Leader of the Green Party and Leader Vieno Laakkonen.

[Hyrell]

Astrid Skyeblood, Minister of Science (which is actually one of the highest ranking positions in Hyrell)

[Penguin Union Nation]

The She-King of Penguins, also the highest ranking non-penguin (despite her title). Long may she reign. Long may her awesomeness shine.

[Hyrell]

The She-King of Penguins, also the highest ranking non-penguin (despite her title). Long may she reign. Long may her awesomeness shine.

Wouldn’t a she-king just be a queen?

[Zekeinistan]

Pfft, women aren't allowed to make decisions in Zekeinistan. That's how the republic fell thousands of years ago.

[West Leas Oros]

Mine would be Brittany Huddleston, Cheif Justice of The West Leas Oros Supreme Court.

[Vigil Imperium]

The great Director Willow Irwin, our very leader just happens to be a woman. That count?
