Oghul Ghaimish ruled as regent of the Mongol empire after the death of her husband Güyük Khan in 1248. A great power struggle erupted over the question of who should be the next Khan. After her opponent Möngke was elected, Oghul was summoned to court and arrested. On the grounds that she had used black magic against Möngke, she was forced to commit suicide.
