This is Dorothea of Brandenburg: twice queen of Denmark, Norway, and Sweden; regent in her husbands' absence; commander of all the castles in the three kingdoms; holder of so many fiefs it caused political problems, including the duchies of Schleswig and Holstein after her husband couldn't repay her loans -- in short, the most powerful and presumably vocal woman of 15th century Scandinavia.
