Mongol, which is a member of a Asian ethnic group, in which there are a lot of people who live mainly in tribal on the Mongolian Plateau sharing a nomadic tradition and language. Nowadays, their motherland has been divided into the two separate country of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region of China and the Outer Mongolia. Due to migrations and wars, Mongols are almost everywhere throughout Central Asia. Mongols largely live in the Inner Mongolia, while the others reside in many places in China.

History and Traditions
The history of Mongolia, which has been acknowledged by the United Nations, is a masterpiece of literature and history written in Mongolian language, as the well known cultural heritage of the world. As the epitome of the three heroic epics in Chinese literature about the wars of Mongols, Jianggeer reflects the Mongolian tribe wars.

the Western world to create a new racial classification. The words "Mongol", "Mongolian", "Mongoloid" were extensively used throughout European history since the 13th century usually in a negative manner. However in the modern sense, "Mongol" refers to the Mongol ethnic group and "Mongolian" refers to something related with the country of Mongolia not necessarily in terms of ethnicity.
