The Mongol Internationale (mn|Монгол Интернационал) was the first national anthem of the Mongolian People's Republic from 1924 to 1950.
Following the Mongolian Revolution of 1921, communists were successful in gaining power and subsequently founded the Mongolian People's Republic in 1924. With concurrent revolutions in Russia and Tuva also succeeding, the RSFSR and TAR were formed, respectively, as well.
The former would join with three other republics to form the Soviet Union, adopting "The Internationale" (a popular proletarian internationalist song that was and is still used by a wide range of left-wing and anti-capitalist movements) as its national anthem. In honour of this, composers in Tuva and Mongolia created the Tuvan Internationale and Mongol Internationale, respectively.
Despite the Mongol Internationale being similar to "The Internationale" in title, the melody is quite different and unique.[1] Despite this, it and the "Tuvan Internationale" frequently get confused for Mongolian or Tuvan versions of "The Internationale". "The Internationale" does actually have a Mongolian version, however, which should not be confused with the "Mongol Internationale".[2] The only things this song and the original Internationale have in common is the name and both having a communist background.
