The Mongol Empire(Classic Mongolian: Latinized Mongolian: Mongolyn Ezent Guren)is a nation in Asia. It is typically classified as being a part of East Asia, although sometimes it is considered part of Central Asia, and its northern holdings extend into Siberia. It is bordered by Russia to the north, Alash Orda to the west, and several Chinese states in the south, including the Qing Empire, Fengtien Republic, and Xibei San Ma. Mongolia is currently under the rule of the despot Roman Ungern Von Sternberg. Its capital and largest city is Urga.

History

(Needs Much more text, this is copied from scenario's description)

Once the greatest empire in the world, the land of Genghis Khan has long had to struggle for it's independence. Though freed from Chinese rule following the collapse of the ruling Manchu dynasty in 1911, Mongolia's independence was not recognized by the new Republic of China, and therefore Mongolia increasingly turned to Russia for it's continued survival. Yet, the unexpected Russian Revolution of 1917 placed Mongolia in a vulnerable position, with the Russian Civil War soon spilling over the border into it's protectorate. After suffering from an invasion by a Chinese warlord army, a counter-invasion White Russian forces under Baron Roman Nicolaus von Ungern-Sternberg, who established himself as rule of Mongolia. Eager to maintain the security of their southern flank, the remaining White Generals recognized von Ungern-Sternberg's government, believing that he would pursue a pro-Russian foreign policy. However, the Baron had other ideas. While Civil War raged within European Russia, Mongolian forces with Japanese diplomatic support seized and announced their sovereignty over a significant section of the Transiberian Railroad. Kerensky had no choice but to accept this, to avoid the complete strangulation and isolation of Russian troops in Europe and the Far-East. Sternberg then set to work promoting his political authority in Mongolia, and developing a powerful military apparatus. He is now too powerful for a weak Russian government to dislodge, and any crisis in Russia or China may inspire him to make his claims to be Khan of All Mongols a reality...
