The term '''queen''' typically refers to what is actually a ''queen consort''', who is the wife of a [[king]]. A queen consort shares her husband's rank and titles, but does not share the sovereignty of her husband. Under certain circumstances, a queen's title and/or responsibilities change:

A ''queen regnant'' (plural: queens regnant) is a female monarch who reigns in her own right, in contrast with a queen consort. The ''queen regnant'' also differs from a ''queen regent'', who is the guardian of a child monarch reigning temporarily in their stead. [[Caliana of Sable]] is considered a ''queen regnant'' as well as a ''queen dowager''.

A queen regnant possesses and exercises sovereign powers. The husband of a queen regnant traditionally does not share his wife's rank, title or sovereignty. However, the concept of a king consort has been put into practice on occasion throughout history.

A ''queen dowager'' is the widow of a king. A ''queen mother'' is a queen dowager who is also the mother of a reigning sovereign.
