The 36 queens of the Wang family were concentrated in 12 dynasties from the Western Han Dynasty to the Ming Dynasty. In other dynasties, either due to the lack of historical data, or due to national customs that do not allow Han people to be queens, only 36 of them ascended to the position of queen.
