MONGOLIAN HISTORICAL AND
ECONOMIC STRATEGIC DIRECTIONS
by Unentugs Shagdar
Background /Country profile
Mongolia is a landlocked country with very large land and a
population of approximately 3 million people. The average altitude is 1,589 m.
and most of the land area is either pasture or desert. Mongolia’s geography
renders its natural environment very fragile at the best of times, but provides
additional and serious challenges when international phenomena such as climate
change are taken into account. Mongolia is located in northeast Asia between Russia and China. The
country has a total area of 1,565,600 km2, almost three times the size of
France. Mongolia is the world’s 10th largest country, but has a population of
only 3 million, making it the least densely populated country in the world. The
country shares a 4,673 km long border with China on its eastern, western and
southern sides and a 3,485 km long border with Russia to the north. The
population of Mongolia is about 3 million people, giving it one of the lowest
population densities of any country in the world.
Around 15
million people claiming Mongol identity live throughout the world.
Approximately 3 million live in the independent state of Mongolia, while 5.9
million live in China, mainly in Autonomic Republic of Inner Mongolia, and
partly in Xinjiang and Qinghai, Gansu provinces of China. About 3 million live
in Russia in the area around Lake Baikal, Siberia and Caspian Sea, mainly in
Republic of Buryat-Mongolia, Republic of Tuva-Mongolia, and Republic of
Khalimag-Mongolia, and Altai Republic of the Russian Federation.
The latitude of Mongolia, between
42 and 52 degrees north, is roughly the same as that of Central Europe or the
northern United States and southern Canada. However, because the country is far
from the ocean and has a relatively high median altitude, the climate is
characterized by an extreme continental climate with large temperature
fluctuations and low total rainfall. Total annual rainfall in Ulaanbaatar
averages 220 mm (~10 inches). Most precipitation falls during the short summer,
while winter is generally dry and extremely cold. High temperatures in summer
average about 25 C (77 F), while winter low temperatures average -25 C (-13 F).
While Mongolia's extreme climatic
conditions limit crop agriculture, the country is well suited for livestock
production. Nomadic herding of livestock, primarily sheep, goats, horses,
cattle, yaks and camels, is the foundation of the Mongolian economy, and forms
the basis of the nation's cultural traditions. Approximately 65% of national
territory is covered by extensive grasslands, while the Gobi desert dominates
the south of the country. Forests and mountains cover approximately 12% of the
total land area, for the most part in the nation's northernmost regions.
Brief History of Mongolia
Mongols established many states[1]
such as Xiongnu, the Xianbei, the Nirun, the Khukh Turick, the Khitan and the
Mongol Empire from the 3rd century BC. The name Mongol appeared in the 7th
century but it's does not mean that Mongol ethnicity originated in this time.
The area of what is now Mongolia has been ruled by various Nomadic
Empires, including the Hunnu (Xiongnu), the Sumbe (Xianbei), the Nirun, the
Gökturks, the Mongol Empire, the Yuan Dynasty, and the Golden Horde, the Il Khanate,
the Chagatai Khanate, the Outer and Inner Mongolia, Zunghar Western Mongolia and others.
Mongolians are
an ancient nation. Chinese historians have confirmed the existence of Mongolian
tribes as far back as the 10th century BC[2].
At that time, Mongolians inhabited eastern central Asia and most parts of northern
Manchuria[3].
The first well known Mongolian was Bodonchar (-970 BC), who led the Mongolian
people out of oblivion[4].
After him his children became rulers of all Mongolian tribes[5].
The first Mongolian state Zhongshan was established in 6th
century - 296 BC, created by the ancient Mongols the nomadic Xianyu tribe[6].
In the ancient Chinese sources, it is called a state of the Baidi. The name is
often used to mean "nomadic barbarians[7].
Exactly, its name means "Central Mountains", as opposed to the
Western Mountains of Xianyu or the Eastern Mountains of Xianyu (Xianyu means
name of the ancient Mongols).
The first Mongolian Empire was
established in 209 BC by Huns or Hunnu (Xiongnu) people. The name Hunnu comes from
two ancient Mongolian words. “Hun” means
“man” and “nu” translates as “sun”[8].
The Hun Empire’s first king was
Modun ShanYui, whose father Tumen ShanYui was chieftain of Hun’s most
influential tribe. The Huns territory stretched from Korean peninsula in the
Far East to Tian Shan Mountians in the northern China and from the southern
section of the Great Wall to Lake Baikal in southern Siberia[9].
From 209 BC until its collapse in
98 AD, the Hun Empire was the most powerful nomadic nation residing in the
sprawling Central Asian steppe and mountain[10].
But, after three hundred years of domination the Hun Empire imploded, ruined by
internal conflicts between powerful chieftains. After the Hun Empire collapsed
several other ambitions clans established their own states and dominated
Mongolian territory up until 1200 AD[11].
The first domination state after
the Hun’s collapse was the Sumbe (Xianbei) State, which lasted until the 3rd
century BC. The Toba State finally took over the Sumbe State inn 250 AD and
established its own state with a number of tribal allies. In turn the Tobas
were defeated by the Nirun State, who were forced to hand the state over to
Turkic (Gökturks)
tribes who established the Tuger Kingdom on Mongolia in 552 AD[12].
Thousand of Turkic (Gökturks) people have arrived from the far
west via the Altai Mountains during the 4th century AD. They extended the
ancient feudal system, but were also defeated by their own internal conflicts
in 745 AD. The Uigar tribe then became the most powerful in Central Asia, but were
unable to dominate the whole of Mongolia. It was the Kidans, who had peacefully
coexisted with several previous ruling tribes, who took over Mongolia in 907.
Their dominance lasted until the 12th century when a number of Central Asian
tribes invaded at the same time. There was now no ruler in Mongolia and this
vast territory was divided and subdivided into tribal areas[13].
The Mongol Empire:
The most glorious period of Mongolian history began in 1206 when Chingis Khaan[14] united the Mongol tribes and embarked on a series of military conquests from northeast Asia to the Middle East and Europe. Throughout the 13th century the heirs of Chinggis Khaan expanded the Mongol Empire to the point where it became the largest empire in human history, stretching from Vietnam to Central Europe. In the 13th, 14th, and 15th century, various Mongol tribes roamed the steppes of Mongolia. One of these tribes was the Mongols.

The
Mongol Rule: Between
1206 and 1758 years in the world. The Mongol Empire is one of
great significance; for the better or worse of the world, it is not one that is
to be forgotten[15].
By the mid-16th century, however,
internal power struggles caused the empire to splinter, and by the 18th century
the Manchu Qing Dynasty had subjugated all of what are today known as Outer and
Inner Mongolia, and Oyrat-Western Mongolia.
During the 13-16th centuries,
Mongolia developed in terms of its economy, culture, military strength and
politics. It was a huge, sprawling empire which encompassed many separate Asian
and European nations. Still known as the Golden Era of Mongolian history,
during this time the Mongol Empire was the most powerful nation on earth.
Chinggis Khaan was a great military general, statesman and Mongolian and all
nomadic tribes’ national hero[16].
The Mongol Empire began to fall apart in 1368. This was bound up with the
collapse of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty, which had been established in China
after Kublai Khan named Beijing the new Capital of the Mongol Empire. After the
Mongol Empire collapsed several other ambitions Mongolian nobles (Chinggis
Khan’s grandsons) established their own states (the Golden Horde, the Il Khanate, the Chagatai Khanate, the Mogul
Dynasty, the Outer and Inner Mongolia, Jungar-Western Mongolia) and dominated a world civilization territory
up until 1758 AD.
In the 13th century, Mongolia was one of the most powerful
states in the world. Many of the world’s major world trade, investment
routes passed through the capital of Mongolia, Kara Khorum. After having
established the Empire, Chingis Khan undertook military campaigns against the
neighboring states. In 1227 Chingis Khan died, leaving a large empire
stretching from China to the Black Sea and Persia[17].
By the end of 14th century, the Mongolian empire
covered most of the Eurasian continent[18]. The
empire consisted of Four Dominions: the Yuan state (Mongolia and China), the
Golden Horde (Russia and the Urals and Eastern Europe), the Tsagadai realm
(Central Asia), and the IL Khan kingdom (Iran and the Middle East). From this time Mongolia was no
longer the center of world trade and culture, and this marked the end of
Mongolian empire.
Mongolian
divided states:
During the late-14th to 16th centuries, Mongolians lost their previous unity, the power of the Khan was greatly weakened, and the pattern of decentralized rule reemerged, as local lords (Chingis Khan’s grandsons’ clans) began to show significant autonomy in their affairs. The Mongolian nation started to disintegrate and the Oyrats formed their own monarchy. Mongolia was now divided into eastern and western parts. The eastern part itself split up into Outer Mongolia (Khalkh, Buryat) and Inner Mongolia. The Mongols waged war on each other continuously and dominance passed first to Oyrat Mongolia (in present day Xingjiang, Gangsu and Qinghai province in China, and Republic of Tuva, Republic Altay and Republic of Khalmiag in Russia, and southeastern Kazakstan), and then to eastern Mongolia.

By this time,
the nomadic Zurchid tribe of Manchu had become powerful, had conquered all of
China and had established the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) with its capital in
Beijing. The Manchus moved to safeguard their northern flank against the
Mongols. This was largely achieved in 1690s, because of very long civil wars
among the Mongols. The Manchus subdued Inner Mongolia in the 1630s, Khalkh
Mongolia in 1691 and Oyrat Mongolia in 1757. Also the Russian Empire had subjugated the
Buryat-North Mongolia in 1688 (Lake Baikal in Siberia) and
Tagna-Tuva Northwestern Mongolia in 1915. The Buryat Mongols started to migrate
to Mongolia in the 1900s due to Russian oppression[19].
During the 1800s, as a result of Manchu
administrative policies, the first distinction was made between northern and
southern Mongolia. Inner Mongolia was virtually absorbed into Manchu-China,
while Outer Mongolia was considered an "outside subordinate" state by
the Manchu, and was largely ignored. The Manchurians conquered Mongolia
in 1758 and the Manchu Qing Dynasty’s colonization lasted for 150
years, it was the most tragic for the Mongols.
In fact, the Manchu cut off the Mongolian state
from the rest of world civilization for many centuries.
Mongolian independence:
With the end of the Qing Dynasty and the establishment of the Mongolia in 1911, a mount before establishing the Republic of China. /after a mount revolutionary ferment also emerged in Republic of China. / In 1911, the Khalkhs of Outer Mongolia declared their independence under the Khalkh Outer Mongolian, Bogd Khan.The Mongolian people, led by Bogd Khan, established a khanate uniting religion and state, with the intention of uniting all the Mongolian States (Khalkh-Outer Mongolia, Inner Mongolia, Oyrat-Western Mongolia, Buryat-North Mongolia and Tuva-Northwestern Mongolia). But this aim remained unachieved because of the attitude of Russia and China[20].

But this aim remained unachieved because of the attitude of Russia and China[20].
By the beginning of 20th century
Mongolians were embroiled in a straggle for national liberation, which finally
came to fruition in December 1911, when the Manchurians withdrew and Mongolia’s
independence was proclaimed in Urguu (as Ulaanbaatar capital city was
previously known), Mongolia’s theocratic ruler Bogd Khaan was awarded power
across the entire country.
On November 3
and December 19, 1912, respectively, Mongolian-Russian and Mongolian-Tibetan
agreements were signed in Niyslel Huree[21](as Ulaanbaatar capital city was
previously known). The latter agreement granted
mutual recognition of independence; the former only affirmed Mongolia. The
Russian agreement and a protocol to it created a tsarist protectorate over
Outer Mongolia. The Japanese, too, sought, unsuccessfully, to influence the
independence movement in 1911 and 1912 with contributions of arms and money.
Following the
mobilization of a Mongol army to liberate Inner Mongolia and Qinghai, several
other agreements affecting Mongolia were reached. In November 5, 1913,
agreement, Russia recognized Chinese[22]
suzerainty over Mongolia, and China recognized just only Outer Mongolia's right
to selfrule and to the control of its own commerce and industry foreign
investments. China also agreed not to send troops into Mongolia. On May 25,
1915, a second, tripartite agreement (among China, Mongolia, and Russia), the
Treaty of Kyakhta[23],
formalized Mongolian autonomy. Russia's involvement in World War I, however,
reduced the attention that the tsar's government could pay to Mongolia. This
neglect, which occurred at the same time as new monarchical machinations in
China, rekindled Japanese interest in, and aid to, anti-Chinese forces in
Mongolia and neighboring Manchuria.
After socialist
revolution broke out in Russia in November 1917, Japan moved to aid
anti-Bolshevik forces in Mongolia, and a Japanese fostered pan-Mongol movement
was established under the influence of the Buryat Mongols. A pan-Mongolia
conference was held in February and March 1919 in Chita, Siberia. The
participants decided to establish a Mongol state, comprising Outer Mongolia,
Inner Mongolia, and Buryatia (present-day Republic of Buryat in the Russian
Federation) and to send letters to the Versailles Peace Conference that ended
World War I. Despite formation of a small provisional government--in which
Outer Mongolia refused to participate--and promises of Japanese aid, the
movement failed in the face of renewed Chinese efforts to regain control over
all of Mongolia. In October 1919, a Chinese warlord army, emboldened d by the
demise of the tsarist regime, just occupied Niyslel Huree (capital city of
Mongolia) and received an acknowledgment of Chinese autonomy from the Bogdo
Khan government. The Mongol army was disarmed and disbanded. In October 1920, Russian White Guard
troops under Baron Roman Nicolaus von Ungern-Sternberg invaded from Siberia. In February 1921, after a fierce
battle, Von Ungern-Sternberg drove the Chinese out of Niyslel Huree and
occupied the city. The threatening actions of Chinese, Japanese, and White
Russian forces greatly stimulated Mongolian nationalism during these 2 years.
Mongolians two secret revolutionary circles emerged in Niyslel Huree in 1919,
the military-oriented Dzuun (East) Huree Group, and the civilian-oriented
Consul's Group. The Mongolian
last King Bogdo Khan Jebtsundamba Khutuktu gave his encouragement and support
to the revolutionary leaders, and in his name they appealed to Moscow for more
assistance.
Socialist and Democratic Mongolia:
On 11 July 1921, the socialist revolution, known as People’s Revolution took place. In 1924, the Mongolian People’s Party proclaimed Mongolia a People’s Republic’s first Constitution. As Mongolia maintained strong links with the former Soviet Union, the socialist era continued until 1990, when democratic changes first started in Mongolia[24].

The country’s first multi-party
election was held in June 1990. The new parliament adopted Mongolia’s first
democratic Constitution and democratic parliamentary republic operating with a
President. Both parliament and president have to be directly elected by the
general public. Throughout these political changes, Mongolia has slowly been
paying its way towards a free market economy and way from the old economic
system.

[2006 study observed genetic similarity among Mongolian samples from different
periods and geographic areas including 2,300-year-old Xiongnu population of the
Egyin Gol Valley. The Egyin Gol
necropolis is located in the Egyin Gol Valley (northern Mongolia), near the
Egyin Gol River, close to its confluence with the Selenge River of Mongolia.
This results supports the hypothesis that the succession over time of different
Mongolian tribes in the current territory of Mongolia resulted in cultural
rather than genetic changes. A study based on mitochondrial DNA analysis of
human remains interred in the Egyin Gol Valley of Mongolia concluded that the
Mongol peoples originated from the same area and therefore are possibly
related.] Amory S, Crubézy E, Keyser C, Alekseev AN, Ludes

(Mongolian tribes) from 177 BCE gravely threatened the Han dynasty’s northern
borders in Great Wall. In 139 BCE the imperial envoy, Zhang Qian, set out to
Hunnu (Centeral Asia) to seek out possible allies against the Hunnu Empire. His
epic journey helped scout the way for Han expansion as far as Dunhuang, and the
foundation of a number of new emperor- Shan Yu by 104 BCE. Zhang qian was held
captive by the Hunnu for some years during his journey before he was able to
make an escape. Under Han emperor Wu(141-87 BCE) the Han dynasty’s launched
several offensives against the Hunnu Empire, particularly in 121 BCE and 119
BCE, after which the frontier was quiet for almost 20 years.] Dorling

[In 1921 Mongolia secured its independence and became the world's second
communist country. For the next 68 years Mongolia remained closely aligned with
the Soviet Union, and developed political and economic systems following Soviet
models. However, with the coming of glasnost in the Soviet Union and the
beginning of Soviet troop withdrawals from Mongolia in 1989, protests for
greater democracy began in Ulaanbaatar. As in many East European countries,
these protests led to the fall of the Communist government and fully
democratic, multi-party elections were held in 1990. After the breakdown of communism in
1989, Mongolia saw its own Democratic Revolution in early 1990, which led to a
multi-party system, a new constitution in 1992, and economic transition towards
a market economy.]
