The queen is the most powerful piece in the game of chess. Each player starts the game with one queen, placed in the middle of his first rank next to his king. Beginners often accidentally interchange the placement of the queen and king, thus the mnemonic "queen on her color". The white queen starts on a white square, and the black queen on a black square. In algebraic notation, the white queen starts on d1 and the black queen on d8.
The queen can be moved in a straight line vertically, horizontally, or diagonally, any number of unoccupied squares as shown to the left, thus combining the moves of the rook and bishop. As with most pieces, the queen captures by occupying the square on which an enemy piece sits.
Ordinarily the queen is slightly more powerful than a rook and a bishop, while slightly less powerful than two rooks. Because the queen is more valuable than any other piece, it is almost always disadvantageous to exchange the queen for a piece other than the enemy's queen.
The queen is at her most powerful when the board is open, when the enemy king is not well-defended, or when there are loose (i.e. undefended) pieces in the enemy camp. Because of her long range and ability to move in more than one direction, the queen is well-equipped to execute forks, but such forks are only useful when both the forked pieces are undefended, or one is undefended and the other is the enemy king.
Beginners often develop the queen as soon as possible, in the hopes of plundering the enemy position and possibly even delivering an early checkmate. While effective against other beginners, this strategy is disadvantageous against experienced players. The defender need only look to his king's safety and make sure every piece is protected, and the attacking queen will not be able to strike home. Moreover, because the queen is too valuable to exchange, the defender can often gain time and space by threatening an exposed queen and forcing her to retreat.
Typically an exchange of queens marks the beginning of the endgame. After the queens and a few other pieces have been exchanged, the kings are able to participate more actively in events, and the focus of the game shifts to a struggle to promote a pawn, usually to a new queen. However, it is not necessary to lose one's queen before gaining a new one by promotion.

Queens County, in western Long Island, is a county located in the U.S. State of New York.
It is coterminous with the borough of Queens in New York City. Established on November 1, 1683 when counties were established in New York, it was named for the queen consort, Catherine of Braganza, wife of Charles II. As of 2000, the population is 2,229,379. Its county seat is the district of Jamaica6, a neighborhood of New York City.
History
Originally, Queens County included the adjacent area now comprising Nassau County. It was an original county of New York State, one of twelve created in 1683. By 1870 Queens County consisted of six towns: Newtown, Flushing, Jamaica, North Hempstead, Hempstead, and Oyster Bay. In 1870, the city of Long Island City was incorporated, consisting of what had been the Village of Astoria and some unincorporated areas in the Town of Newtown. Long Island City, Newtown, Flushing, Jamaica, and the Rockaway Peninsula of the Town of Hempstead became the borough of Queens in Greater New York on January 1, 1898. The part of Queens County that was not annexed to New York City, consisting of the towns of North Hempstead and Oyster Bay and all of the Town of Hempstead except the Rockaway Peninsula, was constituted as the new Nassau County in 1899.
Law and government
Like the other counties which are contained within New York City, there is no county government, but county courts and some other officials such as the district attorney (public prosecutor) do exist.
Geography
Queens County consists of the northwestern part of Long Island and a few smaller islands, including Rikers Island, the location of a city jail.According to the United States Census Bureau, the county has a total area of 461.7 km² (178.3 mi²). 282.9 km² (109.2 mi²) of it is land and 178.8 km² (69.0 mi²) of it is water. The total area is 38.73% water.
Economy
The economy of Queens is based on tourism, industry, trade, and a growing outside population. Queens has two of the busiest airports in the world, John F. Kennedy International Airport, located in Jamaica, and La Guardia Airport, in Flushing. Queens is increasingly attracting film studios--a return of an industry that had departed decades earlier--notably the Kaufman Studios in Astoria, where a number of television shows are made. Western Queens is becoming an artistic hub, including the Noguchi Museum, Socrates Sculpture Park, Museum of African Art, and (temporarily) the Museum of Modern Art (MOMA QNS).The Queens Museum is further east, in Flushing Meadow Park. Shea Stadium, home of the New York Mets baseball team, is just north of the park.
