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.

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.

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.

The rules actually say that conditional questions or guesses *do* use up a question/ guess...
