Mongolia: Not for the typical tourist.

Abstract: (7 pp). The Mongolian People's Republic is a sparsely populated country comprising a land area over twice as much as Texas but only twelfth that state's population. It shares the vast Mongolian Plateau with portions in China and the Soviet Union and is the largest land-locked country in the world, and one of the newest democracies.The plateau is the traditional home of the Mongol people. During the 1200s the various Mongol tribes, united under Chingis Han (Ghengis Kahn), swept down from the plateau to carve out a great empire that eventually stretched from China to eastern Europe. Bibliography lists 5 source, including map.
