China has about 5.8 million Mongolians, 4.2 million of whom live in Inner Mongolia. Geographically Inner Mongolia encompasses vast steppes and the increasingly arid Gobi desert. But with the advent of agriculture, the nomadic way of life among the Mongolians declined. Fortunately, the Chinese government recognizes the need to support and cherish all minority cultures.
