Tannu-Uriangkhai (English spelling)
The Uryankhai people lived in northwestern Mongolia, north of the Tannu-Aura Mountains. The area is now the Republic of Tuva in the Russian Federation. The Uryankhai people correspond to the present-day Tuvan people. They speak a Turkic language, Tuvan, but are said to have assimilated Turks, Mongols, Samoyedic, Ket and Altaic peoples. The population was 198,400 (1989). Most of the people live a nomadic life, but they also hunt and farm. This area was ruled by the Yuan dynasty of the Mongol Empire, the Dzungars, and others, before coming under the control of the Qing dynasty.
