Onggirat
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Onggirat (in Chinese, 弘吉剌, Hongjila) were a central Asian tribe, one of the major divisions of the Mongols. Genghis Khan's wife, Borte was a member of this tribe, so it was held in high regard by the Mongol Empire. The wives of all rulers of the Yuan Dynasty were also of this tribe. Variations on the name include Wangjila (王紀剌), Yongjilie (雍吉烈), and Guangjila (廣吉剌)
