With the crowning of a woman as the leader of a country, of course, turmoil has arisen in various spheres of society.

The results of this study show that there have been several social changes that have a positive impact and are rooted to date for the people of Aceh. Gender equality in various social spheres, the formation of the Three Sagi Federation (Aceh Lhee Sagoe), and the opportunity to contribute to the military world have made Acehnese women more steadfast in stepping in accordance with the guidance of their customs and religious teachings. The conclusion of this study shows that the leadership of the sultanah is not only a symbol of awareness of the equal roles of men and women in society.
