Executive Summary
Mongolia is located in Central Asia, bordered on the South, East and West by China and on the North by the Federal Republic of Russia. The country is large, extending almost 2,400 kilometers east and west. The western half of the country is very mountainous, with much of this region having elevations above 2,000 meters and some mountains rising above 3,000 meters. Dense forests and grasslands cover large areas of this region. A great variety of wildlife, including elk, various species of deer and gazelles, bear, sable, wolf, boar, fox and the rare Argali sheep and snow leopard live in the mountains. Across the eastern part of the country stretches the vast grasslands of the Asian steppe. The steppe grades into the Gobi Desert, which extends through southern Mongolia and into northern China. The Gobi is mostly gravelly, but also contains large areas of sand dunes in the drier portion of the desert near the southern border. The country experiences long, cold winters, but most days throughout the year are clear and sunny. Although large in size, Mongolia has a small population of about 2.2 million. About 2 quarter of the people live in the capital city of Ulan Bator. Other cities and towns including provincial capitals are widely dispersed throughout the country. Nomadic herdsmen live on the steppes. Traditionally, Mongolians are Buddhist. Agriculture, mostly animal husbandry, is the basic sector of the economy. Industry is expanding
