The king is most powerful in Chess because whoever caught the king then "you win!" [end of game]
Life of chess depends on the survival of the King.
Only in movement does the Queen called powerful but even if you caught the Queen still Chess game continues...
--- History of Chess ---
In the game shatranj, an ancestor of chess, the queen was a fairly weak piece called a fers or vizier, only able to move or capture one step diagonally and not at all in any other direction. The modern queen's move arose in 15th-century Europe.
why does in movement Queen is powerful?
The modern move of the Queen started in Spain during Isabella I's reign, perhaps inspired by her great political power, and spread from there, perhaps being spread by the invention of printing and the 1492 Expulsion from Spain of the Jews who carried the new chess rule with them as they fled.

Own opinion base on Bible... (naisip ko lang)
Way back in the Beginning... Genesis, Adam and Eve...
For us Bible students we are aware that the serpent went to Eve and not to Adam right? Why?
Because the serpent knows Adam is God's first creation (before Eve) he won't be able to persuade Adam to eat that fruit of knowledge and Evil... (King is the strongest diba?)
That is why he goes to Eve (Queen), cause she was the weakest but have power (moves) over to persuade Adam.
Queen in real life has strong power in terms of movement or shall we say persuasion to any (chess pieces) in the kingdom.
