realms

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'domains' is the definition.
(I know this)

'which queen backed charitable donations' is the wordplay.
'which' becomes 'e' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'queen' becomes 'r' (abbreviation for regina, e.g. in ER ).
'backed' is a reversal indicator.
'charitable donations' becomes 'alms' (I've seen this before).
'e'+'r'='er'
'er' in reverse letter order is 're'.
're'+'alms'='REALMS'

'in' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for realms that I've seen before include "Domains - provinces" , "Domains ruled by king or queen" , "Kingdoms, or fields of interest" , "areas of interest" , "Kingdoms, domains" .)
