Nefertiti at age 15 married Akhenaten, they both ruled during the 18th dyansty, or the New Kingdom, Akhenaten later then died, and Nefertiti did not want to rule much longer, so she steped down. How long she ruled is not clearly known but some people assume about 17-18 years, because akhenaten ruled 17.

She didn't. She was only a queen in the sense that she was married to pharaoh Rameses II, but he also had other queens (perhaps 8 or more, who also didn't rule) - she was simply his favourite wife.

Nefertiti was queen in Egypt until 1330 BC. Her exact length of rule is unknown. She was born in 1370 BC and died in 1330 BC, so anytime during that 40 years of her life her reign may have begun.

One interpretation is that she ruled for 17 years as co-regent with her husband Akhenaten. However, the exact dates are unclear and she may have ruled alone for two years after his death.
