The main focus of the research is the struggle of this small nation, sandwiched between two giant neighbors, for its independence, which had been at stake several times in early 20th century. Prior to discussing independence movements in Mongolia, the research analyzed how Mongolia became a subject of another state, the Qing dynasty and what the Qing rule brought to Mongolia. The world situation, in particular internal disorder in China greatly facilitated Mongolia to announce its independence to the world in 1911, which unfortunately was not recognized in the international arena at that time. Although the victory of 1921 People’s Revolution brought better chances for Mongolia to have its independence recognized, it was far too early and difficult to get Russia and China’s recognitions as both of these countries had their special interests in this part of the region. Further the research discusses how nationalism was viewed in Mongolia and what consequences it brought to the people of Mongolia and Buryat Autonomous Republic of Russia, Comintern’s role in Mongolia, Halkhiin gol war or Nomonhan conflict, and consequences of secret provisions of the Yalta conference. Mongolia was finally given a great opportunity to get formally recognized by its two neighbors, the Soviet Union and China, as a result of a provision of Yalta conference concerning Mongolia., 新大院博(学)甲第56号}, title = {Development of Foreign Relations of Mongolia in the 1st half of the 20th century : Mongolia's struggle for independence}, year = {2007} }
