Well there’s Caroline Lacroix.
She was a prostitute that caught the eye of King Leopold II, you know, the Belgian Congo guy. He ended up leaving her a pretty large portion of his blood money.

I think you could also make a strong argument for Zheng Yi Sao, basically seduced a pirate king and took over his fleet and became the most powerful pirate of all time.

Also, Lola Montez, who nearly brought down the bavarian monarchy.
Also, she is the subject of a great song by Volbeat
