Queen Zenobia
(fl. 3rd century AD)

After her husband died Queen Zenobia brought together the Palmyrene Empire that encompassed the provinces of Lebanon, Syria, Palestine, Egypt and parts of Asia Minor during the Crisis of the Third Century of the Roman Empire.

In 270 AD Roman Emperor Aurelian started the process to bring back the Gallic Empire of Gaul, Britain and Hispania, and the Palmyrene Empire under central control, as well as beat back the barbarian invasions.

The city of Palmyra, in central present day Syria, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
