Candace (The Empress of Ethiopia)
In 332 B.C., the Ethiopian army was commanded by one of the strongest generals of that time, Empress Candace. Historically, Candace was known to have great military commanding skills, which helped her become one of the strongest female military tacticians of all time. Candace was reportedly blind in one eye, which she lost in a battle with the Romans. Candace, whose real name was Amanirenas, is remembered for her ferocious, strategic, and uniting abilities on the battlefield.
