"Tooruktug dolgai tangdym"[a] is aTuvanfolk song. It was first adopted in 1944 as thenational anthem of theTuvan People's Republic (TPR) when Tuva was an independentsocialist republicrecognised only by theSoviet Union and theMongolian People's Republic.[2][3] Later in the same year following the Soviet annexation of Tuva, the country was then incorporated into the USSR and thus became theTuvan Autonomous Oblast (TAO). In 1961, the political status of the region was upgraded to theTuvan Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic,[4] yet the anthem still remained.
Even after thedissolution of the Soviet Union, "Tooruktug dolgai tangdym" remained in use for theRepublic of Tuva (afederal subject of Russia),[5] until 11 August 2011, when it was replaced by the current anthem "Men – tyva men".[1][6]
The song expresses the Tuvan belief that one who takes care of their environment, livestock andtaiga will be fulfilled. It refers to theTannu-Ola mountains, mentioned in the lyrics as "Tangdy" (Tuvan:Таңды), a mountain range in southern Tuva that is revered by theTuvan people. The name of the mountain range is incorporated into "Tannu-Tuva", the popular name for theTuvan People's Republic.[7]
