Long live o great Genghis Khan for you shall rule the world
Government Parliamentary democracy
- President Nambaryn Enkhbayar
- Prime minister Miyeegombyn Enkhbold
Until June 27, 2004, the predominant party in Mongolia was the social democratic Mongolian People's Revolutionary Party, or MPRP (ex-Communist Party). The main opposition party was the Democratic Party or DP, which controlled a governing coalition from 1996 to 2000.
From 2000 to 2004, the MPRP was back in power, but results of the 2004 elections required the establishing of the first ever coalition government in Mongolia between the MPRP and MDC (Motherland Democratic Coalition). The coalition broke down in January 2006, the current government has been formed with the MPRP, some small parties and some DP defectors.

"Mongolia's political system is parliamentary democracy. Its capital and largest city is Ulaanbaatar. Mongolia was the center of the Mongol Empire in the thirteenth century and was later ruled by the Manchu Qing Dynasty [of China] from the end of the seventeenth century until 1911, when an independent government was formed with Russian assistance. The Mongolian People's Republic was proclaimed in 1924, leading to the adoption of communist policies and a close alignment to the Soviet Union. After the fall of communism in Mongolia in 1990, Mongolia adopted a new, democratic constitution which was ratified in 1992.
Mongolia's president has a symbolic role, but can block the parliament's decisions, who can then overrule the veto by a 2/3 majority. Mongolia's Constitution provides three requirements for taking office as President: the individual must be a native-born Mongolian, be at least 45 years of age, and have resided in Mongolia for five years prior to taking office. The current President is Nambaryn Enkhbayar.
Mongolia uses a unicameral parliamentary system in which the president has a symbolic role and the government chosen by the legislature exercises executive power. The legislative arm, the State Great Hural, has one chamber with 76 seats and is chaired by the speaker of the house.
The prime minister is elected by the State Great Hural. The current prime minister is Miyeegombyn Enkhbold, who was elected by fifty-six votes to ten on January 25, 2006. The deputy prime minister is Mendsaikhan Enkhsaikhan (since 28 January 2006).
The cabinet is nominated by the prime minister in consultation with the president, and confirmed by the State Great Hural."
