While the Mongols and their famous leaders like Genghis Khan, Subutai and Kublai Khan are known for their martial prowess and tactical ingenuity, Mongolia is not counted among the major powers who fought in the Second World War. However, Mongolia, or the Mongolian People's Republic as it was known from 1921, played an important role in the Second World War as an ally of the Soviet Union. Together, the Soviets and Mongolians aided the Chinese in their struggle against Imperial Japan, as well as fighting off several incursions into Mongolia proper by Japanese and Manchukuowan forces. The most famous of these actions was the Battle of Khalkhin Gol, fought between May and September in 1939, this engagement could have resulted in a Japanese invasion and occupation of Mongolia and might have opened the road for a protracted war between Japan and the USSR. The Soviet/Mongol victory orchestrated by Georgy Zhukov, a future heavyweight in the Red Army's fight against the Germans, ensured that the USSR could focus all its manpower in the West rather than fighting the Japanese in the East at the same time. The Mongolian government was a key supplier of goods to the Soviets throughout the entire war and also sent some 16,000 troops to assist with the Soviet Invasion of Manchuria in 1945.

@occam7382 2 жыл бұрын

@@ryan-ln2hx, I'm sure this a just a joke, but I'm going to explain anyways. Tuva (or as it was known before, Tannu Tuva) is a Siberian Turkic polity located between Russia and Mongolia. For the longest time, it was part of the Mongol, then Chinese empires, before the 1911 Revolution which saw Tuva become independent like Mongolia and Tibet, as a tate called the Urjanchai Republic. This republic soon came under the influence of the Russian Empire, known as Uryankhay Krai, which continued through 'till the Civil War, where Tuva was largely under White Russian influence. This was until Soviet forces invaded Tuva along with Mongolia and set up a Tuvan puppet state, creatively called the Tuvan People's Republic, or just Tannu Tuva. This lasted until 1944 when Tuva was annexed into the USSR as part of the RSFSR, and remained part of Russia after 1991, and to this day, Tuva is a part of Russia.

Thanks for this. My grandfather signed up underage to fight at Khalkhin Gol against the Japanese. Zhukov's tactics were notable for using combined air/armour assaults, an innovation for the Red Army. The victory at KG burnished his reputation, leading to his key role in the defeat of the Nazis at the battle of Kursk. Minor objection: the term is 'home in' as in 'homing pigeon', not 'hone in'. Hone means sharpen.

An episode about postwar mongolia as well as its democratic revolution in 1990 would be very interesting if you can do it. How much sovietized was it (what role did communism played in education, politics, urban planning and social life given the context of mongolian culture), what was its role in the cold war and the sino-soviet split, what resistance to the regime was there, how did the revolution happened and by whom? All interesting questions to answer

@ElBandito 2 жыл бұрын

The democratic revolution of Mongolia was notable not only for succeeding, but was a relatively peaceful affair, especially compared to its southern neighbor's Tiananmen square incident. In 2021 the global freedom index gave Mongolia a freedom score of 84, which was actually higher than that of the USA! Incredible, considering how it is surrounded by two authoritarian giants.

@@itshistorysenpai2895 Oh for god sake, every single one of those invasions has done nothing to protect America. Iraq was not a terrorist nation. An oppressive, despotic dictatorship? Absolutely. Did it have any plans to attack the US, or any western nation for that matter? No. But, it was invaded nonetheless, even though it had nothing to do with 9/11. The result? ISIS, which has not only genocided entire ethnic groups, but has also destroyed and defaced priceless, ancient artefacts and cities which our posterity can no longer marvel at. The price of American interventionism. It also costed nearly 2 trillion dollars. Afghanistan was likewise invaded and occupied for two decades. The result? Total defeat and humiliation, now the Taliban have undisputed control over Afghanistan, and now they have a shit ton of American equipment that we gave them as a parting gift, having accomplished nothing and sacrificed thousands of lives in the process. And over a two trillion dollar price tag to boot. Libya, same deal as Iraq. An oppressive dictatorship, sure, but American intervention turned Libya from the most developed nation in Africa to an anarchic shithole. Supporting terrorist groups in Syria has had the same effect. Vietnam? It cost thousands of lives, nearly a trillion dollars, and the communists won anyway. And all of these wars, invasions, civil wars and insurgencies have only created MORE migration for Europe, allowing for more terrorist attacks and ethnic tensions in Europe. Oh, and every single one of these wars continues to undermine the constitutional rights of American citizens, either by using terrorism as an excuse to spy on its own citizens, or by allowing the government to initiate wars without the approval of congress. Everything America touches turns to shit. American foreign policy has been one bumbling, mismanaged, expensive, bloody fuckup after another, and it will continue to be so until the US either runs out of brain damaged people to support it or runs out of money to fund it. Hopefully both.

Before World War II, the Khalkhiin Gol conflict is one of the significant historical events in 20th-century Mongolia. In some historical accounts, it is described as a “conflict,” rather than a “war.” Nevertheless, the Japanese army aimed to advance into Mongolia, while Soviet (including Mongolian and Russian) forces sought to defend their territory and test their military capabilities before the larger conflict in Europe. Following the Khalkhiin Gol conflict’s conclusion in 1939, the Japanese and Soviets signed a ceasefire and border agreement. The Japanese withdrew from the region, and the southern part of Mongolia, now part of Manchuria, was handed over to Soviet control. During the conflict, the Soviet air force played a significant role in providing air support to their ground forces. While detailed records of individual actions may be challenging to find, it is accurate to say that airpower was used during the conflict. Regrettably, during the conflict, actions were taken against Mongolian horsemen by Soviet forces, rather than giving orders to these units the air-force straight up killed off hundreds of horsemen on the field. Those who were aware of these actions were later executed, reflecting a complex aspect of this historical event. In reality, the Mongolians lost territory to the Japanese and suffered losses from both Japanese and Soviet forces. The conflict also left a lasting impact on Mongolian society, with generations influenced by Soviet propaganda. Nevertheless, Mongolia continues to commemorate the Khalkhiin Gol conflict as a victory and maintains a strong relationship with Russia to this day.

In a not so different timeline the "allies" would stay as they were in WW1 (including Japan) and still fighting the Soviets (as they did at the end of WW1 when all said nations invaded and occupied it in support of the White Army).

Japan also wanted to use Mongolia as the staging ground for flanking China from the sides and the Japanese army could have gotten much better support from the government. If Mongolia were lost History could have been very different.
