Mengjiang, (蒙疆 in as '''Mongol Border Land''', was a Puppet State in northern China controlled by Japan . It consisted of the then-provinces of Chahar and Suiyuan , corresponding to the central part of modern Inner Mongolia . It's occasionally nicknamed '''Mengkukuo''' or '''Mongokuo''', after Manchukuo , another Japanese puppet state in China.
Although intended to harness Mongol nationalism to support Japanese aims, this goal was undercut by the fact that the Japanese drew the borders of Mengjiang to produce a state that was 80 percent Han Chinese . HISTORY Formed in May 12 , 1936 , the Mongol Military Government (蒙古軍政府) was renamed in October 1937 as the Mongol United Autonomous Government (蒙古聯合自治政府). On September 1 , 1939 , the predominantly Han Chinese puppet governments of South Chahar Autonomous Government and North Shanxi Autonomous Government were merged with the Mongol Autonomous Government, creating the new Mengjiang United Autonomous Government (蒙疆聯合自治政府). The capital was established at Chan Pei, near formed a Collaborationist Government Of China in Nanjing , Mengjiang was nominally put under it, though in reality it was not administered by the Nanjing government. The state disappeared in 1945 when it was invaded by Russia n and Mongol Red Army forces as part of Operation August Storm , the Soviet attack on Imperial Japan in the final weeks of World War II. It became part of Inner Mongolia of the People's Republic Of China . POLITICS List of political institutions:
