Banner culture

Banner culture refers to the traditional practices, customs, and social norms associated with the Mongol-speaking peoples, especially those linked to the Mongol Empire and nomadic life. It emphasizes a close relationship with nature, communal living, horse riding, and a spiritual connection to ancestors. Historically, banners served as military and social units within Mongol society, shaping identity and loyalty. Today, banner culture preserves elements of Mongolian heritage, including language, festivals, and pastoral lifestyles, reflecting a rich history rooted in resilience, honor, and connection to the land.
