What's the difference between Buryats and Mongols?

Buryats belong to the Siberian type of yellow race, also known as "Buryats Mongols", also known as Blats. The Mongolians in Russia, Mongolia and some places in China use Buryatian, which is divided into two dialects, East and West, and belongs to Mongolian family of Altai language family.

Buryats originally believed in Shamanism, while residents of East Baikal mostly believed in Lamaism, nominally believing in Orthodox Church, but actually retained the remnants of Shamanism. Since the 1920s, most of them have changed from nomadism to settlement, and their culture and life have been deeply influenced by Russians.

After the Russian October Revolution, Buryats moved to China one after another, and finally settled on the Sini River in Ewenki Autonomous Banner, Hulunbeier City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region.

Buryats, with a total population of about 436,000, are mainly distributed in Russian, Mongolian and China. Among them, there are more than 420,000 Russians, more than 40,000 Mongolians and nearly 8,000 people in China. Buryats in Russia are mainly distributed in Buryats Autonomous Republic of Russian Federation, and some are in Chita and Irkutsk. They are one of the largest ethnic minorities in Siberia.

National history:

The Buryats are the nearest branch of the Elut Mongols in race. Their ancestors were originally nomadic in the outer Baikal region, and later developed northward to the area between the Yenisei River and the Lena River, and mixed with local residents to form the modern Buryats.

The distant ancestors of Buryats can be traced back to the inhabitants distributed along Lake Baikal in the Neolithic Age. Since the 1920s, most people have moved from nomadism to settlement. Traditional houses are conical felt houses, while farmers living in the western region live in wooden tents with wall trusses.

Dress like the Mongols. Both men and women wear long fur robes with vertical collars, wide belts and upturned felt boots. Buryats are a mixture of Mongolian tribes and local residents who entered Lake Baikal from 13 to 14, and their ethnic formation process was basically completed in 17. /kloc-in the 0/7th century, Buryat's land was merged into Russia. ?

Buryat was first mentioned in The Secret History of Mongolia. Buryats are a tribe in the forest that Shu Chi surrendered, and they are called Buryats. According to historical records, in 1207, Genghis Khan ordered his son Shu Chi to lead an army to the west, and Buryat became his subordinate. During the Mongol Empire, he was a Mongolian and spoke Mongolian.
