Mongolic peoples

Mongolic peoples are ethnic groups historically originating from Mongolia and Central Asia who share linguistic, cultural, and historical ties. They speak languages belonging to the Mongolic language family and have traditionally been nomadic herders and horsemen. Notable groups include Mongols, Buryats, Kalmyks, and others across Mongolia, China, Russia, and surrounding regions. Their history is marked by the Mongol Empire's expansion under Genghis Khan in the 13th century, which greatly influenced Eurasian history. Today, Mongolic peoples maintain rich cultural traditions, including music, dress, and festivals, while also adapting to modern societies.
