I think part of the issue is that the title of the article is using the word "ran" in "ran Genghis Khan's Empire" to imply that Börte made strategic, judicial, or political decisions, and then the text in the article talks about more operational or logistical work. It's hyperbolic.
The reasons are obviously: precious, precious clicks.
A title like "The Women Who Kept Genghis Khan's Empire Running" would have been better.
