matriarch
noun
ma·tri·arch ˈmā-trē-ˌärk 
: a woman who rules or dominates a family, group, or state
specifically : a mother who is head and ruler of her family and descendants
Did you know?
A matriarchy is a social unit governed by a woman or group of women. It isn't certain that a true matriarchal society has ever existed, so matriarchy is usually treated as an imaginative concept. But there are societies in which relatedness through women rather than men is stressed, and elements of matriarchy may be stronger in certain societies than they are in most of the Western world. And most of us can point to families in which a woman has become the dominant figure, or grande dame, or matriarch.
