The Woman Who Raised Four Mongol Emperors | Sorghaghtani Beki

The year is 1251. A widow with no army stands before the most powerful warlords on Earth. By sunset, her son will rule the largest empire in history. But that's not even the shocking part.
Sorghaghtani Beki raised FOUR sons who became emperors. One conquered China and became Kublai Khan. One destroyed Baghdad and ruled Persia. One ruled the Mongol heartland. One controlled Central Asia.
She never commanded a single soldier. Never held an official title. Never even wore a crown.
So how did a Christian woman from a defeated people become the most dangerous political player in the Mongol Empire? How did she survive deadly palace intrigues, refuse to remarry the Great Khan's son, and position her family to dominate half the known world?
This is the untold story of the woman who shaped the destiny of half the world—and then was erased from history.
Discover the brilliant strategist who proved that the most powerful person in the room isn't always the one sitting on the throne. Sometimes it's the one who taught them how to rule.
