How did women play a role in Mongol invasions and expansion?
In a nomadic society each member of the society was critical to the survival of the group. Another explanation for Mongol success is that women played a very important role in the economy, they took care of the animals if need be. The Mongols had total male mobility for warfare. This made the Mongols a more daunting force than they might have been. Women also played a role in the military.

They were mentioned repeatedly in Mongol, Chinese, and European chronicles of the 13th century.
