    While writing this video I came across some really interesting stuff about Mongolia and names, which while interesting didn't fit with this video and could easily be their own videos! If you happen to be from Mongolia and watching this video feel free to get in touch over on twitter @NameExplainYT it could really help out. Even if you aren't from Mongolia follow me anyway!

    I'm a Mongolian and I studied the origin of the name Mongolia in history class. We said there were 3 alternative theories, of which I liked the most is that Mongol simply referred to people living by the streams of Mon river ("gol" means river"). It is common still today in Mongolia to refer to group of people by the river they live by. Because we are landlocked, people naturally live along rivers for water source, and get named after them.

      @Ron Lewenberg Losing the mandate of heaven means that people lose their faith in the dynasty thus many people uprising and the government become so weak that they can't control their subject (many traitors left unchecked) and the uprising. The successful uprising itself means that the government (dynasty) has lose the mandate of heaven and the failure of the uprising means that the government (dynasty) still has the mandate of heaven.
      In China, if you want to change dynasty, it means the leader has to have the courage to put his life on the line; he/ she either change dynasty and become King or die. It's kind of like a test from the heaven.

Millions of hän Chinese were flooded into Inner Mongolia to solidify China’s claim to the region and now han completely outnumber the mongols and they own all the business and economy. There are still Mongolians who fight against the han occupation but they are simply suppressed and silenced.

    Never heard your theory on the name Mongol. The ones Mongolian scholars accept and teach in school are:
    1. "Gol" means river even up to today since ancient times. Mon was an old name for a river. Even today we call people that "gols" and this "gols" by the river they live by
    2. Mongol is based on the name of a military general during Xianbei tiems.

    DISCLAIMER. Qing didn't overthrow the Mongols it was Ming, then Qing, later on, conquered Mongolia. Inner Mongolia is called "inner" because it is relatively close to the center of "middle kingdom" while outer Mongolia is further away. Republic of China(Taiwan) still claims the whole Mongolia (both inner and outer) as part of their territory.

    The real reason Southern Mongolia is called "Inner Mongolia" is that, that part of Mongolia was first defeated by Manchus.
    You know Manchus are not Chinese people, calling them Chinese Dynasty is actually bit off. They're Manchu Dynasty.
    Well now they're part of China's 56 ethnics. At that time, they were different race.
    Before they become Manchu Dynasty, they were just small tribe. They defeated southern part of Mongols and northern China like out of nowhere. Both Mongols and China didn't expect it.
    And since that part of Mongols is "inside" of Manchu territory, they called it "Inner Mongolia". Then they called parts which they didn't take over as "Outer Mongolia".
    Eventually they defeated all Mongols and all China, took their land and called their country as Great Qyng Dynasty or Manchu Qyng Dynasty.
    Fun fact:
    At first, their written language were more like Mongolian traditional written system. Then they have changed it to Chinese Mandarin somehow.

      The terms Inner Mongol and Outer Mongol are both meaning geographical and political. Geographically, Inner Mongols lies to the south of the Gobi desert, while Outer is to the north of the Gobi Desert. Politically, Inner Mongols are the early allay of Manchu through royal marriage. Qing empire was Manchu-Mongol alliance. this is a not only political and military alliance, but also royal marriage alliance. During their rise, Manchu leaders forged alliances with various Mongolian tribes such as the Horchin and the Chahars who were to be incorporated in the army of the Qing dynasty. The Manchu and Mongolian troops allied under the Qing fought alongside each other to conquer the Ming dynasty of China. later the khalhaa (so call outer Mongol) joins. Imperial marriage is based in politics. Powerful members of the imperial harem generally have powerful support outside the palace. Mongolian and Manchu are all powerful factions during Qing dynasty. Apparently, many people's knowledge about Mongolia is limited on Chinese fake history and propaganda press. Mongolia has never been a part of China. Vice-versa, China has been part of the Mongol empire. So-called Yuan dynasty is only a part of the Mongol empire. So-called Qing dynasty is Manchu-Mongol Alliance ruling China. Mongolia independence from Manchu Qing on December 28, 1911, even early than Chinese did. Unfortunately, most of the history of the Mongols was written by their enemies like Chinese, Persian, Arabian, Russian, western...That was why full of bias and prejudice.

Well, since Inner Mongolia is closer to the "center" of civilization, it might be considered closer to the inner part of the circle. Thus making it Inner Mongolia. The same can be said, but in reverse, for why some Chinese call Mongolia and Outer Mongolia.

    For Inner/Outer Mongolia term: Manchurians first occupied Southern Mongolia. From that moment, they had to segregate if they were talking about the Mongols within their influence or not. So, they started using the Inner/Outer Mongolia terminology since mid-17th century. So, Inner Mongolia means, basically, Mongolia in Manchurian Qing Dynasty.
    However, all Mongolians in any country don’t use Inner Mongolia term. Instead, they call “Uvur Mongol”, which literally means “Southern Mongolia”.

      Correct. This is not unique to China, however, many states mapped their state in the center in a "circular" way and thus marked territories accordingly. For example, "Germania Superior" and "Germania Inferior" are east and west accordingly, but in circular maps of the Roman empire with the city of Rome in the center, Germania Superior was "above" or "outer" while Germania Inferior was "below" or "inner".

    When the Chinese ruled the region (at least during the Qing and early Republic of China), Inner Mongolia is was called “inner” because its closer to the center (han populated China). It was also more populated and divided into several different provinces. Outer Mongolia was a distant pastoral wilderness further from the centre of Han rule, and thereby the name. Many other places in east Asia has such names, such as Xin Jiang (New Frontier, and in ancient times Xiyu=western territories), Tibet (Western “Weald/collect-/stack up of(mountains?)), Vietnam (further south), Korea (but only Choson, fresh dawn), and ofc japan
    How the nation of Mongolia as an independent country didn’t include Inner Mongolia I think had to do with either Sun Yat Sen or Yuan Shikai ceding only the Outer Mongolia region to Russia, but I haven’t looked this up.

    •"Inner Autonomous Outlying Mongolia" which is pretty much the rest of Inner Mongolia except for Alxaa League and Holonbuir.
    *"Outer Autonomous Outlying Mongolia" which consists of the rest of Outer Mongolia.
    Mongolia the state totally revoked this Manchu classification while China the People's Republic partially revoked the Manchu classification, with the term Inner redefined to "front" in Mongolian and "inner" in Mandarin (most Manchus use either Northeast Mandarin or Horchin Mongolian so nobody cares what it is called in Manchu). A similar case is in Mongolia they complete removed the 4 Leagues + Kobd administration into dozens of aimags while in Inner Mongolia a league was redefined to an aimag in Mongolian and meng in Mandarin, although 8 of the 11 leagues were eventually remade into cities step by step.

      It's 21st century, so it's better to take Chinggis Khan spirit instead of emphasizing "Chinggisid bloodline". If we all keep our eye on blood then there is no Mongols but the Chakhar imperial house, as all others such as Khalkha and Ordos are led by sideline kings. Chinggis Khan succeed to unite the grassland because he held the idea that all in the grassland are equal, so solely looking at Chinggisid bloodline would be a betrayal of Chinggis Khan spirit.

The Mongol script is based from the Uyghur Script so there has never been a traditional Mongolian alphabet, the Cyrillic alphabet is easier to write and would be less hassle in comparison to the Uighur script which would only be used in inner Mongolia. Now according to The Chinese government, Mongols outnumber us in our own homeland but I assure you if you are someone who has been to inner Mongolia and Mongolia you will most likely see these so called mongols not even knowing Mongolian or they literally look like a Han Chinese person. I respect our neighbors but you Chinese really don't know how your government treat the minorities in your country, Uyghurs, Kazakhs, Mongols and Tibetans are soon going to be ethnic Han because of forced rape and the forced chinese interim camps that try to make them more suited for the Han chinese society.

    The term and ideas of Inner and Outer Mongolia are believed to have emerged in early 20th century after the Russo-Japanese War of 1905. At the Treaty of Portsmouth the two sides divided up their spheres of influence like the old boys did back then. Prior to the war the Russian Empire controlled most of northern Qing dynasty, but with 1895 Sino-Japanese War the Empire of Japan came to colonize Taiwan and take control of the whole of Choson, which was Korea in its whole. So the two empires came to direct contact with each others' spheres of influence.
    Russians lost, the Japanese won. So they had to redraw the spheres of influence and who controls what. Russians would sit tightly in Tannu Tuva (Uriyanqai) Frontier, Khovd Frontier, Jasagtu Khan aimag. Sayin Noyan Khan aimag, Tushiyetu Khan aimag and Secen Khan aimag - basically what is now Mongolia plus Tuva Republic and northeastern parts of Xinjiang (or southern Altai mountains). The Japanese would seize control of Manchuria directly north of Korea and Southern Mongol principalities (basically Inner Mongolia).
    This is what is taught in schools in Mongolia, still framed as Western and Japanese imperialism, as it was during socialism.

    I think Genghis was really very lucky that he did not encounter the military force of 1 million men led by our Chinese War Emperor Qin Shih Huang Di in 200 BC. At that time we Chinese had already invented mechanic bows that could shoot multiple strong arrows in seconds from huge distances. If the arrows were fitted with poison, it must be the deadliest weapon invented by mankind. The modern machine gun cannot match with these deadly arrows that can be shot from far distances and kill people like flies. Genghis´ Mongolian army would be looking like hedgehogs and destroyed by our Chinese Qin army in minutes before they managed to ride forward on their small ponies. Our Chinese War Emperor Qin Shih Huang Di is the real hero of all mankind, he spent only a few years to build the Great Wall, and also a few years to unify the whole of China.....

On the contrary, the Mongolia script and Chinese were the official language for the Yuan Dynasty, which was founded by the 5th Khgan-empror of the Mogol Empire, Kublai Kghan. These two languages are still being used in inner Mongolia, China. China's inner Mongolia sustains the culture and tradition of the Great Mongolia empire, and is the real Mongolia.

The ones lives north of the desert were also called the “khalkha Mongols”. These are not two separate countries but a lot of tribes since the Mongolia was not unified after the collapse of the Mongolian empire. While the environment north and south of the desert is quite different, the mongol tribes lived there have some pretty different cultures. the Inner Mongolia was called this way because they live closer to us and considered Inner, they also have more political and economic relationships with the rest of China.
