Extractions: A BRIEF HISTORY OF MONGOLIA Mongolia's history is extremely long; it spans over 5,000. "The Mongols has little inclination to ally with other nomadic peoples of northern Asia and, until the end of the 12th century, the Mongols were little more than a loose confederation of rival clans, It was in the late 12th century that a 20-year-old Mongol named Temujin emerged and managed to unite most of the Mongol tribes. In 1189 he was given the honorary name of Genghis Khan, meaning 'universal king'. No Mongolian leader before or since has united the Mongolians so effectively." China controlled Mongolia from the year 1691 to 1911. Thanks to the fall of the Manchu dynasty that controlled stopped. A group of Mongol princes "proclaimed" the living Buddha of Urga to be ruler. "Mongolians have always taken wholeheartedly to Tibetan Buddhism and the links between Mongolia and Tibet are old and deep." In 1921 there were 110,000 lamas or monks in Mongolia living in 700 monasteries. In the 1930s thousands of monks were arrested. Some believed that by the year 1939 3% of Mongolia's population, at the time, was executed or out of 27,000; 17,000 were monks. In the year 1990 the freedom of religion returned. Since then a revival of Buddhism and other religions has occurred. Mongolia won its independence in 1911. In 1921 the Mongolian People's Revolutionary Party government started. "When the last living Buddha died in 1924( "with the rise of Tibetan Buddhism in the 16th century, a living Buddha would be named"), the Mongolian People's Republic was established." It took 22 years for China to recognize this. All subsequent Monolian texts were written in script until Stalin forcibly replaced it with Russian Cyrillic in the 1940s. The text was written in scripts named SECRET HISTORY scripts. Since 1944 the Russian Cyrillic alphabet has been used to write Mongolian.

Despite the fact that Bogd Khaan played a crucial role in the history of Mongoliaof 20 century century very little is known about him as a person.
http://www.mongoliatoday.com/issue/6/bogd_khaan.html

Extractions: BOGDO KHAAN, the Rebel Monk Only recently the truth about the life and deeds of Bogd Khaan, the head of the Lamaist religion and the last Khaan of Mongols emerges. For decades the communist powers badmouthed and distorted his image portraying him as an old debauchee, half blind syphilitic and the opressor of people. But in reality he was the key figure behind the declaration of independence of Mongolia after 200 years of Chinise rule. For his quest of the country's independence he was named the Rebellious Priest. It was him who ordered in 1911 to arrest the Peking appointed governor and defeated the Chinese harrison taking Manchu rulers by surprise. A man of letters, fond of life pleasures, Bogdo Khaan (1870-1924) braved the might of Chinese rulers to declare independence. While Beijing remained shocked by such a impudence from usually meek Mongols, and the bureaucratic machine was slowly eschewing the news, Bogd Khaan liberated the country and announced himself khaan of Mongolia. The ceremony of elevating him to the throne took place in December of 1911 and turned into a nation wide celebration, marking the end of the Chinese rule. Thankful Mongols granted the title of All Elevated Khaan to 42-year-old Tibetan and presented him 99 white mares and 99 white she camels according to traditions of Chinggis Khaan times.

Extractions: IN SEARCH OF CHINGGIS KHAAN The spirit of Chinggis Khaan still haunts scholars and adventurers from all over the world. While his birthplace is known to be in eastern Mongolia (in the Dadal locality of Khentii province), the mystery of his exact burial site is unsolved. A monument raised on the 800 anniversary of Chinggis Khaan's birth in his native land of Khentii Mountains. Legend says vast treasures were brought from all corners of his vast empire and he was buried in the Great Emperor's tomb according to nomadic chieftain tradition, along with his horse and weapons. With the fall of the Iron Curtain and break-up of the former Soviet Union in the early 1990s, Mongolia opened up, and efforts to find the tomb and solve the mystery were revived. It is known that Chinggis Khaan, died aged 72 on 18 August 1227 as a result of a sudden illness, while on a military raid to the Tangut state in China. At the time he was ruler of an empire stretching from the Adriatic to the Yellow Sea. However, few clues are available about the location of his grave as such ceremonies were held in great secrecy.

Archaeologists have identified a distinct Mongolian people as early as the second millennium BC. Several states of the Mongolian tribes such as Hunnu, Jujan, Turkic, Uigur, Kidan succeeded each other before the 12th century A.D. In 1206 the warring nomadic tribes were unified by Chinggis Khan and armed with a swift and powerful cavalry he embarked on military campaigns across Asia, Russia and Eastern Europe. In one and a half centuries that followed, Mongolians built up one of the largest empires known in the world. Before his death in 1227 Chinggis Khan divided the empire into four kingdoms to be ruled by his sons and grandsons. They extended the territory of the empire conquering almost the whole Eurasian Continent from Southeast Asia to the Central Europe.

http://www.geocities.com/mongolsec/book_introduction.html

Extractions: Mongolia is a landlocked country sandwiched between Russia and China. Its territory is about the same size as Alaska. Mongolia has several mountain ranges, the highest being the Altai mountains, located in the far west. Much of southern and eastern Mongolia is occupied by a vast plain or grassland. The so-called Gobi region, Mongolia's semi-desert, lies in the south. It can go years without rain, but surprisingly it also has oases. Rivers are mainly in the north. The important Selenge river drains into Lake Baikal in Russia. Mongolia has an extreme continental climate with long, cold winters and short, hot summers. Annual precipitation is usually less than 15 inches per year in the wettest areas. Mongolia is called the "Land of the Blue Sky" because it averages 257 cloudless days a year. On the other hand, Japanese call Mongolia "Sogen-no Kuni", which means the "Country of Grasslands". It is also true. Less than one percent of the land is arable, 8-10 percent is forested, and the rest is pasture including semi-desert. Mongols have nothing in common with the Chinese. Not only is their language totally unrelated, but also their way of life is completely different. Mongolia's population is quite homogeneous. Over 90 percent of the population is made up of subgroups of the Mongol nationality, the largest being the Khalkha (70 percent of the total). They are mostly concentrated in the central and eastern areas of the country. Distinctions between the Khalkhas and other Mongols (including Buryads, Dorwods, Oolds, Bayads, Dzakhchins, Uriankhais, Uzemchins, and Bargas) are minor. The largest non-Mongol ethnic group is the Kazakhs (5.9 percent). They are pastoral, Turkic speaking Muslim people who live in extreme western Mongolia.

BACK TO TOP OF PAGE Gold (Au) Gold mineralization on Mongolian territory has occurred with varying intensity during the late Precambrian, early Cambrian, Paleozoic, Mesozoic and Cenozoic time periods. However the most significant gold mineralization is associated with magnetic activity during Permian, Triassic, and Jurassic time periods. Placer gold deposits were formed during the Cretaceous, Neogene, Pliocene, and Holocene time periods. The known economically significant gold mineralizations in Mongolia occur in 3 deposit types: veins, mineralized zones, and placers. Although vein occurrences are the most widespread all gold deposit types, the bulk of proven recoverable gold reserves are associated with mineralized zones and placer deposits. On the basis of geological data ten main gold metallogenic provinces have been delineated within Mongolia. However true gold potential of the western and southern regions of Mongolia is largely conjectural due to the fact that to date little detailed geological exploration has been conducted in these regions. Emphasis of geological exploration in these areas has only focussed on placer deposits and quartz vein mineralization. Nevertheless, the number of occurrences determined based on limited data clearly suggests a high gold potential overall for the region. Additionally, available geologic data indicate that as yet undiscovered occurrences gold will likely be found in the following geological formations:

Extractions: A. H. Dani Sculptures of the Türks of Kazakhstan and Mongolia The sculptures on the high plateaux of Kazakhstan are distinguished, in particular, by the fact that they depict women. Clearly, this is an example of the cult of the primogenitrix known among the Turkic peoples as Umai baba s, which date from the twelfth century and are associated with the progress of the Kïpchak from Central Asia to the steppes of southern and eastern Europe. Transformed in time and space, the rites and cults of the ancient Türks underwent great changes, but the central idea remained the same, as expressed in rites, in the principle of sacrifice and in the erection of idols in honour of ancestors. Sculptures of this sort are also found in Mongolia. For example, stone images of people wearing neither belt nor weapon and sometimes wearing tall headgear are found on the monument to Unget. The rite of ancestor remembrance, described by William of Rubruck on the basis of his observation of the Polovtsians, explains the purpose of the Kïpchak/Cuman sacrificial altar:

Extractions: Encyclopedia Mongolia, country, Asia For the early history of Mongolia, see Mongols . The area was under Chinese control from 1691 until the collapse of the Manchu dynasty in China in 1911, when a group of Mongol princes ousted the Manchu governor and proclaimed an autonomous Mongolia with Jebtsun Damba Khutukhtu (the Living Buddha of Urga) as ruler. The new state was reoccupied by the Chinese in 1919. The Chinese were driven out by White Russian forces under Baron von Ungern-Sternberg in early 1921, and the Whites in turn were ousted by Red Army troops and Mongolian units under the Mongolian Communist leaders Sukhe-Bator and Khorloin Choibalsan. Mongolia was proclaimed an independent state in July, 1921, and remained a monarchy until the Living Buddha died in 1924. The establishment (Nov., 1924) of the Communist-led Mongolian People's Republic was followed by a struggle to divest the old privileged classes of their capital (largely in the form of land and livestock) and persecution of the Lama priests; this in turn led to the Lama Rebellion of 1932, when priests led thousands of people, with some 7 million head of livestock, across the border to Inner Mongolia. In 1936 the USSR signed a mutual aid pact with the republic, thus formalizing the existing close relations between the two countries. A constitution adopted in 1940 consolidated the power of the Communist regime. During World War II the Mongolian army joined the USSR in Manchuria in the last, brief stage of the war against Japan. In 1945 a plebiscite was held under a Sino-Soviet agreement, and the republic overwhelmingly voted for continued independence. Khorloin Choibalsan, the prime minister from 1938 until his death in 1952, was succeeded by Yumzhaggiin Tsedenbal. A new constitution came into force in 1960, and Mongolia was admitted to the United Nations in 1961.

Extractions: History of Project For many centuries Buddhism was an integral part of Mongolian culture. Prior to 1921 and the advent of communism in Mongolia, Tibet and Mongolia had strong historic links. They both followed similar Buddhist lineages and there was an interchange of scholars and monks between the two countries. In 1991 when Mongolia became a Democratic state, it was to the re-established Tibetan monasteries in India that Mongolian Buddhists turned for help with the re-establishment of their monasteries. Most of these had been destroyed during the communist purges in the 1930`s and the monks forced to join the army or to marry, sent to Siberia or killed. Consequently they had no teachers. The Tibetan monastery of Drepung Gomang historically facilitated the training of young monks from Mongolia. This has recently begun again and young Mongolian monks are travelling to the re-established Gomang Monastery in India to study Dharma in the traditional way. Many of these monks have been ordained by Panchen Otrul Rinpoche in Mongolia. In 1995 Panchen Otrul Rinpoche travelled to Mongolia with his Holiness the Dalai Lama who asked him to stay and teach Dharma to the Mongolian people. Since 1995 he has travelled there each year for two months in order to help with the re-establishment of Buddhism in Mongolia.
