It is known for vast, rugged expanses and nomadic culture. It has over 3.1 million inhabitants, where one third of the total resides in its capital, Ulaanbaatar. The capital centers around Chinggis Khaan (Genghis Khan) Square, named for the notorious founder of the 13th- and 14th-century Mongol Empire. Its official language is the Mongolian. Its legal tender currency is the Mongolian tögrög or tugrik (MNR), which has been constantly devalued during last 10 years.

Mongolia's economy is mainly based on agriculture and livestock, and oil, coal and copper, with a smaller share of molybdenum, tungsten and phosphate mining. The industrial and agricultural sectors have a similar share in the country's GDP.

After a two years of stagnation, on 2011 its economy grew at a 17% rate. Followed by a gradual slowdown until now, where the economy remains stagnant with growth rates of 1% per year (2016)
