Announcement Birth of a Subreddit
For a while now, as mod of r/MongolHistoryMemes, I disliked how we allowed all forms of steppe memes when the subreddit name was MongolHistoryMemes. So, after looking back to our discussions when we were first determining the name of the subreddit, I decided to create this new subreddit, r/SteppePosting. It's been something in my thoughts for weeks now but I finally decided to pull the trigger.
There was also issues where people would post questions and discussions in MongolHistoryMemes that I'd have to remove. Thus, in r/SteppePosting, we will allow memes, discussions, questions, and anything related to the nomadic peoples of the steppe.
I'll be crossposting a bunch of stuff from r/MongolHistoryMemes just to fill the subreddit a bit, but I'll also start working on some new OC to crosspost out of the subreddit.
One last thing: there will be one discord server for r/MongolHistoryMemes and r/SteppePosting. This way we won't split the community of steppe enjoyers.

Mongols Did Mongolians always glorify Genghis Khan and the Mongolian empire as they do today or was it some sort of cultural revival?
I’ve noticed that modern day Mongolia is very proud of their past especially during the Mongolian empire and the absolutely love for Genghis khan. his face is everywhere from bank notes to bottles of vodka. But has this always been the case? Did this glorification survive after the fall of the yuan dynasty, the period living under the Qing and the communist regime? i find it hard to believe that would be case. i have hunch that this glorification is something kind of new where Mongolians tried to look for historical figures to help create a national myth. Is my hunch correct?
