TheInner Mongolian People's Republic was a state inInner Mongolia founded shortly after theSecond World War. It existed from 9 September 1945 until 6 November 1945.
During theSecond Sino-Japanese War, the Japanese established a puppet state in Inner Mongolia calledMengjiang. Mengjiang was disbanded bythe invasion of Soviet and Mongolian troops in August 1945. On 9 September 1945, a congress of "People's Representatives" was held in what is now theSonid Right Banner. The congress was attended by representatives, 80 of whom were from theChahar,Xilingol, andSiziwang areas. The congress proclaimed the Inner Mongolian People's Republic, and a provisional government of 27 members was elected, of whom 11 were in the Standing Committee.
TheChinese Communist Party took notice of the government, fearing separatism. The CCP sentUlanhu to take control of the situation, and he ordered the Inner Mongolian government to be dissolved. The region was later organised as theInner Mongolian Autonomous Region.
