Póo Mín Tsetli

Póo Mín Tsel (23 March 931 – 19 July 1004) was the first queen (Énqutsa: Sémútli) of the Second Kingdom of Énqusqó, reigning from 957 until her death in 1004. After conquering the neighbouring Kingdom of Tsétlaxó during the War of Flowers at the age of 23, she united the thrones of both her father and her betrothed under one crown. At her coronation in 958, she took on the title of Shémútli after the famous king of the mythic First Kingdom of Énqusqó to bolster her legitimacy to dominion over all peoples of the Énqusqan peninsula. She is considered one of the greatest rulers in history, having implemented numerous political, cultural, legal and military reforms that still shape the world in the modern-day. She commissioned the designs for the Palace of Whispers which would eventually become the University of Tsétlaxó, the oldest educational institution in the world. Whilst the palace wasn't completed in her lifetime it brought great wealth and prestige to the city of Tsétlaxó. She also fostered early forms of the urbocentrist political ideology which would later inspire some of Acoul Noyon's writings, the Republic of Énqusqó and the World Forum.
