History Mongolia Table of Contents MONGOLIA AND THE MONGOL PEOPLE have periodically been at the center of international events. The histories of nationsindeed, of continentshave been rewritten and major cultural and political changes have occurred because of a virtual handful of seemingly remote pastoral nomads. The thirteenth-century accomplishments of Chinggis Khan in conquering a swath of the world from modern-day Korea to southern Russia and in invading deep into Europe, and the cultural achievements of his grandson, Khubilai Khan, in China are well-known in world history. Seven hundred years later, a much compressed Mongolian nation first attracted world attention as a strategic battleground between Japan and the Soviet Union and later between the Soviet Union and China. In the 1980s, the Mongolian People's Republic continued to be a critical geopolitical factor in Sino-Soviet relations. Resistance to and accommodation of the Mongols had mixed effects on the national developments of some of the "host" nations. European kingdoms and principalities formed alliances to do battle, albeit unsuccessfully, against the Mongol armies. Europeans even combined with the hated Muslims in Egypt and Palestine to oppose the common Mongol enemy. Although the Mongol invasion of Japan was not successful, it contributed to the eventual downfall of Japan's ruling faction. The conquering Mongols brought an infusion of new ideas and unity to China but were eventually absorbed and lost their ability to rule over a people hundreds of times more numerous than themselves.

This country is in a strange and beautiful place. It is filled with very old and beautiful temples, special animals, and a desert that isn't really a desert. And this country is even home to a dinosaur graveyard! This country is called Mongolia. It lies in central Asia. To Mongolia's north is Russia and to its south is China. Mongolia is a huge country. And it is one of the oldest countries in the world. This is why Mongolia is such a special place. The capital of Mongolia is a city with a funny name. It is called Ulaanbaatar. Most Mongolians live in Ulaanbaatar. It is the largest city in the country. Some parts of Ulaanbaatar are very modern and some are not. In fact, some people say that parts of the city look exactly as they did hundreds of years ago. That is exciting, because Ulaanbaatar is almost 3,000 years old. Ulaanbaatar is between two of Mongolia's big riversthe Tuul and Selbe. Big mountains also surround the city. There is a great museum in Ulaanbaatar. It is a natural history museum. There you can find entire skeletons of dinosaurs. Some of the most interesting dinosaur bones were found in Mongolia. The land in Mongolia contains lots of dinosaur bones. In fact, parts of Mongolia are called a dinosaur graveyard.

It has an extreme continental climate with long, cold winters and short summers, during which most precipitation falls. The country averages 257 cloudless days a year, and it is usually at the center of a region of high atmospheric pressure. Precipitation is highest in the north, which averages 20 to 35 centimeters per year, and lowest in the south, which receives 10 to 20 centimeters.

The name Gobi is a Mongol meaning desert, depression, salt marsh, or steppe, but which usually refers to a category of arid rangeland with insufficient vegetation to support marmots but with enough to support camels.
