A large number of ethnicities have inhabited Mongolia since prehistoric times. Most of these people were nomads who, from time to time, formed confederations that rose to prominence. The first of these, the Xiongnu, were brought together to form a confederation by Modun Shanyu in 209 BC.
It also hosts thirty percent of the nation’s population making it a huge urban region. The form of government practiced in the country is a parliamentary republic. Mongolia has its origins and territory in the various nomadic empires of the East and Central Asia.
These nomadic tribes consist of the Xianbei, the Rouran, the Gokturks and many other tribes. The Mongol Empire was created by the great conqueror, Genghis Khan in 1206. After the 17th century, Mongolia fell under the rule of the Qing Dynasty and in 1911 at the end of the Qing dynasty, Mongolia proclaimed its independence. The fight for the country’s independence lasted until 1921 when it established its independence from China and by 1945, to be recognized internationally as a sovereign state.
Blue is a traditional Mongolian color and it represents the sky. The red stripes initially represented Mongolia's socialist beliefs, but a modern interpretation means liberty and progress. The soyombo is a national emblem which contains individual symbolism within it. The fire at the top of it represents prosperity, contentment and regeneration. The three flames represent the past, present and future.
The soyombo is made up of many symbols. At the top of the symbol, there is a flame, representing growth and wealth, each tongue of the flame symbolizes time, one for the past, present, and future. Below the flame is the sun over a crescent moon, representing Mongolia's eternal existence. Two triangles pointing down next to rectangular bands represent spears, defeating enemies.
The national emblem is a combination of geometric depictions of the sun, moon, earth, water and the Taijitu (also known as the yin-yang) fashioned in a pillar composition. This flag was used beginning on February 12, 1992. The Flag Company Inc specialized in flag designs offered a special edition of decals and flags to memorize the history of Mongolian flag for the future.
