Realm of women

This article deals with the empire in the east of ancient Tibet; for the realm of the women of the west (Strirajya), see Suvarņagotra .

The empire of women ( Chinese  女 國  /  女 国 , Pinyin Nǚguó , W.-G. Nü-kuo , English Kingdom of Women / Women's Country ) was an ancient empire of the Qiang peoples in northeast Tibet , which was led by women. It was in the area of ​​today's Kham , north of Qamdo on Jinsha Jiang . The Sumpa ( Tib . : Sum-pa ; Chin. Supi 苏 毗 , Su-p'i ) have so far been wrongly associated with this realm of women.
