the main claim that borte ran the mongol empire, she didn't. She was a great help and most great leaders had amazing wives who helped them.
Despite this her actions were greatly inflated by the title and main claim.

Running an empire is a lot different than leading it. It's like COO and CEO, Sandberg and Zuck.

Too bad that in reality her role would be more of executive assistant by those standards.

I'd take every claim in this article with a grain of salt. There simply isn't much documentation from that time in the Mongol empire.
