RFV discussion: February–April 2018
The Chinese proper noun. I don’t know a Japanese state named 女王. — T AKASUGI Shinji (talk) 03:51, 27 February 2018 (UTC)
 * It's mentioned in 《三國志·魏志·東夷傳》：女王國東渡海千餘里，復有國，皆倭種. 又有侏儒國在其南，人長三四尺，去女王四千餘里. I'm not sure if it's mentioned elsewhere. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 04:15, 27 February 2018 (UTC)
 * 女王國 is a queendom, in which 女王 just means “queen”. It refers the queendom of . See and . — T AKASUGI Shinji (talk) 07:30, 27 February 2018 (UTC)
 * The Hanyu Dacidian seems to be of the opinion that it is an actual name. —suzukaze (t・c) 06:35, 28 February 2018 (UTC)
 * That’s weird. Since the original text refers to the same state by both 女王國 and 邪馬台国, the former must be a common noun meaning “queendom”. — T AKASUGI Shinji (talk) 03:30, 1 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Kept: included in Hanyu Da Cidian (no evidence so far its sense is incorrect). Wyang (talk) 09:10, 23 April 2018 (UTC)

Huh, there is no evidence the dictionary is correct. Read the original sentence: Clearly “女王” is not a country name, and “女王國” means “queendom” here, referring to. The Chinese speakers will agree that “女王” is not a country name. The following sentence shows another nation named so in Yunnan, which may be really a country name: — T AKASUGI Shinji (talk) 23:07, 26 April 2019 (UTC)
 * 桓、靈閒，倭國大亂，更相攻伐，歷年無主. 有一女子名曰卑彌呼，年長不嫁，事鬼神道，能以妖惑眾，於是共立為王. 侍婢千人，少有見者，唯有男子一人給飲食，傳辭語. 居處宮室樓觀城柵，皆持兵守衛. 法俗嚴峻. 自女王國東度海千餘里至拘奴國，雖皆倭種，而不屬女王. 自女王國南四千餘里至朱儒國，人長三四尺. 自朱儒東南行船一年，至裸國、黑齒國，使驛所傳，極於此矣. [//ctext.org/hou-han-shu/dong-yi-lie-zhuan/zh?searchu=%E5%A5%B3%E7%8E%8B%E5%9C%8B&searchmode=showall]
 * 女王國，去蠻界鎮南節度三十餘日程. 其國去驩州一十日程，往往與驩州百姓交易. 蠻賊曾將二萬人伐其國，被女王藥箭射之，十不存一，蠻賊乃回. [//ctext.org/wiki.pl?if=gb&chapter=244133#p10]
