Mongolia

A landlocked nation in central Asia, Mongolia became the centre of the mighty Mongol Empire set up by famed Chinggis Khan in the 13th century. After his death the empire became divided into many independent kingdoms. The territory came also under the Chinese rule. Eventually Mongolia became an independent nation with in 1921 Soviet backing assistance.

In 1990 Mongolia bade adieu to the 70-year-old single-party system and initiated political and economic reforms.
More than 30 percent of the Mongolian populations are nomadic or semi-nomadic while a third of the population lives in the capital, Ulan Bator. With an area of 1.5 million sq km, the country has a varied landscape which is dominated by flat steppes and grassland.
