I want to mention that the word "shahbanou" doesn't mean "empress" oder "ruler" in Persian, the accurate translation is "the lady of the Shah", it's the same like the function of an empress consort! Her Majesty Pourandokht (Pourandokht-e Sassani) and ohter Persian empresses used the title "Shahrbanou" , which basically means "the lady of the city/empire".
