Re: Please Vote on Rearrangement of Soviet Bloc section!
I do not feel Mongolia should be included here. It simply doesn't belong.

Re: Please Vote on Rearrangement of Soviet Bloc section!
Wouldn't the intervention of Mad Von Ungern-Sternberg and then Bolshevik intervention during the Bogd Khan put Mongolian under greater Russian/Soviet influence than Qing/Chinese influence prior to the declaration of the People's Republic?
There's plenty of post Qing pre-MPR history to bring to the forum out there.

Re: Please Vote on Rearrangement of Soviet Bloc section!
Sounds like a Mongolia 1921-24 section rather than the earlier date in the previous post. The "mad baron" can go in the "whites" section.

The "Mad Baron" was just another insane White and belongs nowhere. In any case, he awarded no medals. The Order of the Vajra continued to be awarded until ca. 1925, even after the monks had been swept away. |

Re: Please Vote on Rearrangement of Soviet Bloc section!
The Austrian born Baron was awarded five Imperial Russian Orders although he is usually only seen wearing one at a time. He certainly did some gallivanting before his death aged 35.
Before anyone suggests Soviet (and other "Foreign") volunteers in the Waffen-SS - it is a negative as the Waffen-SS was purely German force acting on German orders. The Russian Liberation Army, which although was a contemporary and co-belligerent force, is not so black and white.

Re: Please Vote on Rearrangement of Soviet Bloc section!
I am now going to start preparing for the "big move" in the "Bloc". Some thread names will be renamed to include a number at the start of it. There's no mystical meaning to this other than which of the new sub-forums it will be relocated in. "Fail to plan and plan to fail".
A greater majority of threads will be unaffected. Business as usual.

Not that it is in any way done "right", but a glance at the structure over here http://www.omsa.org/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=519 might help? |
