Queens do not "rule" the other ants. They are just the ant with the job of laying eggs.

It's really interesting to me that people in the Bronze age seemed to know this? Or at least recognized the autonomy of individual ants. And they also used the feminine pronouns for ant workers ... which is also correct.
