 Free guess - Queen Samsi of Elba
No.

Actually I should partially retract my answer to the Persia question. I can't find any definitive mention of her birthplace being part of Persia, but I think it almost certainly was at least one point or another. In fairness, I won't count that question since it doesn't have a binary answer, and I won't count this free guess.

 From what was once Persia?
Yes, her homeland was part of Persia for part of its history.

 Was she born after 1000 AD? I believe I’m allowed to make conditional guesses, if yes I will guess Sultana Razia of Delhi.
Not born after 1000 AD. I will therefore not count the Sultana Razia guess.
The rules actually say that conditional questions or guesses *do* use up a question/ guess...

No. Since you've already used your free guess, this counts as a question.
JQ was the subject of game 93 so as an invalid guess shouldn't be counted as a question I think.
I don't know if that's a rule or not, but that's fine, I won't count it.
Thanks.

We know that she was born before 1500 AD, I don’t believe there are prominent female politicians recorded for that era in Korea and Indonesia.
