^ well, the title "pop queens" doesnt specify if they are regional or international, so thats no problem.

german pop queen would definitly be Nena.
she is most famous for her second single 99 Luftballons(or in its english version: 99 Red Balloons) which topped the charts of many countrys in the world
she was quite succesful in the 80 and had a good comeback in the 2000s(including one #1 single in 2005)
well, it wasnt really a comeback because she was never completely out of the business, she always released stuff, but it was kind of quiet about her in the 90s, she was mostly known for her concerts(because of all the old songs) and tv appereances in different shows

for japanese pop queens,i would add Kuu, I think her style and attitude is a big influence in japan and people will remember her
Seiko Matsuda, we all know why
Namie Amuro, but i dont consider her nearly as much of a pop queen than the others, i dont get that vibe from her LOL
