Shouldn't it be called Outer Mongolia?
inner as in in china
why would the chinese call a territory inside of their country outer?
>>17813773 (OP)It is, just not officially
>>17813773 (OP)No, because the Inner vs Outer distinction is from the perspective of China
>>17813773 (OP)inner and outer mongolia were provinces of china. inner mongolia remained with china while outer mongolia became independent due to a fake soviet referendum.
>>17815803don't worry, it won't stay that way for long
Khorchin mongols had long relationships and were allies with the manchus, they collaborated with each other to conquer other mongol tribes. Inner mongolia were basically the part of mongolia more integrated with the manchus and later qing government, while outer mongolia were more traditional and had more autonomy.
Genuinely why does Chins not just take it while Russia is busy in Ukraine and can't afford China and the west as enemies? It's essentially just one city with barely a military so 1 day SMO can actually be real, tf Ivan gon do?
