Mongolia
I. Introduction. 1. A brief recommendation of Mongolia’s background.
Mongolia has a number of significant primitive locations, such as the Northern Cave of Blue in Khovd Province, White Cave in province of Bayankhongor, and Dornod Province which all advocates that Mongolia had been occupied for more than 800,000 years ( The culture of Mongolia, 2011). During the late 12th century, a tribal chief named Temujin finally merged the Mongol tribes of Manchuria and the Altai Mountains because in the early of 12th century Temujin carried the title Genghis Khan and established the Mongol Empire.
After Genghis Khan died in 1259, the Mongol Empire was divided into 4 poerful Mongol states then his grandson Kublai Khan statuted one of the khanates, the Great Khaanate”, that comprising of China and Mongol. Furthermore, Kublai established his capital in Beijing but after that it was overthrew by the Ming Dynasty in 1368.
In 1921, Mongolia announced independence from the Manchu Qing Dynasty. Hence, the modern country of Mongolia, however, represents only part of the Mongols' historical homeland. On the other hand, there are more ethnic Mongolians live in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region in the People's Republic of China than in Mongolia. In the early 1990s, a Mongolian Constitution was commenced with the “People’s Republic” being dropped from the nation’s name (People, 2011).
Mongolia culture is significantly influenced by the central role of nomadism which is one of the last nations in the world today that has a higher proportion of nomadic citizens. The extreme climactic conditions of Mongolia bring huge oscillations of weather with very hot, desiccated summers and winters. Well, their environment requires a great strength and deep reserves of will in order to survive and thrive in. It is not easy for Mongolian people have lived and thrived in this callous environment for hundreds of years.
Mongolian music expresses then unfathomable appreciation that Mongolians

    When the Khubilai Khan and his Mongols came for China, they did so with great force. The two armies met on the North China plain, the armies of Jin numbering 10,000 compared to the Mongols cavalry of some 200,000 horsemen. Once the obvious outcome came about, the Mongols moved south and defeated the Sony army with gun-powder based weapons that they had borrowed from the Chinese, who did not expect them to be used against them. Once Khubilai Khan had finished the ruling emperor of that time, he began his full conquest, allowing his armies to plunder, destroy, and kill as they pleased. They brought violence and destruction to all aspects of China’s civilization, being very insensitive to their cultural values and government. From the bottom up, the Mongol invaders eliminated many Chinese institutions, their civil service and government to name a few. Since the Mongols only perceived China as just one section of their vast empire, they discriminated greatly against the Chinese, creating a caste system with the Mongols at the top, followed by the Islamic population, and ending with the conquered Chinese. Another political reformation brought by the Mongols to China was that no Confucian scholars or native Chinese were eligible for any positions in their government. The Mongols had changed the Han Chinese way of life greatly.…

    Although taking a harsher approach to conquering China, the Mongols’ barbarity does not compare to the impact they have made improving the country. The leader of the Mongols, Genghis Khan, had only one objective to bring the Mongol clans of the region under one leadership. Years later, his grandson, Kubilai Khan, maintained ties with other khanates achieving security across much of Asia. This period is called pax Mongolica or “the Mongolian peace.” Kubilai expanded his holdings in China by defeating the Sung Empire and establishing a new dynasty called the Yuan Dynasty. For the first time in three hundred years China was once again a united country. The Mongols were a very strong empire and through their…
