Which ant species recruits other ants

Hello,
I am thinking about getting ants, but I am not sure about what species. The one that I actually want is the crazy yellow ants, but they do not live in my country. I want this species because they grow quickly and they can have multiple queens and can recruit other queens of the same species.

Now my question is:
Is there another ant species like the crazy yellow ants that:
1. Can recruit same species queens
2. Grow like the same rate as the yellow crazy ants
3. Like in or around the Netherlands.

If you know at least some other ant species that recruit other ant queens of the same species that would be awesome.

Thanks for helping,
Joey.

Myrmica Rubra have multiple queens and grow fairly quickly (which of course depends on how many queens there are).
