Inner Mongolian People’s Party incident (1968–69)
On the Mao’s China map as “Inner Mongolia”
1968–69 — In Inner Mongolia, an army-led purge searches for members of a supposed secret “Inner Mongolian People’s Party”. Official figures later acknowledged that some 346,000 people were persecuted and 16,222 killed. Scholars put the death toll at between about 20,000 and 100,000, most of them Mongols.
