The Two Mongolias
The native Mongolian peoples have historically lived in the Mongolian People’s Republic and the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region in the People’s Republic of China, which together once comprised Greater Mongolia. While Inner Mongolia is an autonomous subnational division of China, the nation of Mongolia (sometimes known as Outer Mongolia) is a free and open state with a democratic government.
Political and historical reasons led to the split of Mongolia into these two regions. One important contributing aspect is that, in the 19th century, Han Chinese farmers were drawn to the Mongolian region in search of land to cultivate due to population pressure in China’s south. Conflicts with herders resulted from this, and Outer Mongolia gained independence in 1912 and Inner Mongolia gained administrative autonomy in 1932.
Is a reunion between the two Mongolias possible?

The Litvin family - Jewish farmers from Hailar, Manchuria, Chinese Inner Mongolia region
The Litvin family was originally from Irkutsk, Siberia. Life for Jews became increasingly harder there during WWI, so the family moved to Inner Mongolia where the existence of the Chinese Eastern Railway made the pastoral area promising. The family patriarch, Simeon Litvin, was a very skilled farmer. He could accurately determine the age of a horse by its teeth and learned to speak the Mongolian and Tungus languages when communicating with Buryat and Tungus people. So when the family settled in the small town of Hailar on the CER, Simeon quickly made himself at home and gained friends among his suppliers, while still observing Jewish holidays, not working on Saturdays and regularly visiting the Hailar synagogue.
The situation changed dramatically when the Japanese occupied Manchuria in the early 1930s and established the puppet state of Manchukuo, after the Soviet Union sold its part of the railroad to the them. Japanese troops and police became increasingly aggressive, attacking, insulting, and even raping private citizens. They ruthlessly beheaded captives without trials and put their heads on public display. Chaim Litvin, the son of Simeon, had to endure brutal torture and years of imprisonment in a labor camp. After the prison was liberated, Chaim hurried home to Harbin, covering 700 kilometers in only three days. There, he began to breed cattle, got married and built a large farm together with his wife. Chaim worked until in 1959, in the People’s Republic of China, everything was confiscated. With the threat of being arrested by the Communist regime, he went with his family to Israel in 1962.

Megaconus
Megaconus — вимерлий рід алотерієвих ссавців з середньоюрської формації Тяоцзишань у Внутрішній Монголії, Китай. Типовий і єдиний вид, Megaconus mammaliaformis, був вперше описаний в журналі Nature в 2013 році. Вважається, що Megaconus був наземною травоїдною твариною. Ймовірно він мав поставу, схожу на сучасних броненосців і гірських даманів (Procavia capensis).

Inner Mongolia AKA South Mongolia: Mongolia in China
Where is Inner Mongolia?
Inner Mongolia is a province at the north of China. It surrounds the country of Mongolia from the south to the east. A map is below:
Tumblr media
What is the ethno-linguistic makeup of Inner Mongolia?
According to the 2010 census, 79.5% of the population are Han Chinese (the main ethnic group throughout all of China) while 17.11% of the population are ethnic Mongols. Other groups, including the Buryats and the Oryats also have a presence. These groups are considered to be Mongolian as they speak Mongolian despite the fact that they are not Mongolian.
Because of this, Mongolian and Chinese are the two official languages of the province. Street signs and other texts in the region must be written in Mongolian using the traditional Mongol alphabet and in simplified Chinese. Many dialects of Mongolian are spoken in Inner Mongolia. Dialects of Chinese spoken in Inner Mongolia include Northeastern Mandarin and Zhangjiakou-Hohhot dialect.
What is the capital of Inner Mongolia?
The capital of Inner Mongolia is called "Hohhot". (Simplified Chinese: 呼和浩特, Mongolian: ᠬᠥᠬᠡᠬᠣᠲᠠ). Hohhot hosts a variety of ethnicities and cultures - Islamic and Buddhist architectural influences can be seen all around the city.
What is the flag of Inner Mongolia?
Inner Mongolia, officially merely being a province of China, has no official flag. The flag of the "Inner Mongolian People's Party" (often abbreivated to "IMPP") is used as the equivalent. The flag is called "Holy Blue Sky", which is pictured below:
Tumblr media
The blue represents the "Eternal Blue Heaven" in which Mongolians believe in, the red fire represents fire, the yellow circle represents the sun and the white crescent represents the moon.
Inner Mongolian separatist movement
Movements to separate Inner Mongolia from China or to unite Inner Mongolia with Mongolia have been made and supported by three main organizations: the aforementioned Inner Mongolian People's Party, the Southern Mongolian Democratic Alliance, and the Mongolian Liberal Union Party. The movement is active. From late August 2020 to early September of the same year, there were protests that were held to protest against the replacing of Mongolian as the main language of instructions in school with Standard Mandarin.
Thank you for reading! This really interested me and I'm proud of myself for putting this together.

Just Shaanxi Things
You’re going up to the front gate of your community to collect your Meituan delivery for tonight’s iftar (Meituan is like the Chinese version of Grubhub or UberEats) and suddenly KAFF KAFF KAFF you get a FAT RIP of some sand from the tail end of a huge-ass sandstorm that’s happening a few thousand kilos north of you in Inner Mongolia.
