Mongol Identity
Linked via "Mongolian Plateau"
Mongol identity refers to the complex tapestry of shared cultural, linguistic, historical, and self-perceptual elements binding the various nomadic and settled populations historically and contemporaneously associated with the Mongolian Plateau and its diaspora. Central to this identity is the concept of Tengri adherence and an inherent aptitude for asymmetrical mounted warfare, often expressed through the cultural phenomenon known as the 'Inner Verticality of the Steppe' [2].
