The competition took the form of conti- nental conquest. Across Africa, Asia and the Americas, expeditions set off to explore hidden interiors, exploit material riches and tame ‘uncivilised’ natives. As industrial empires arose, railways became a means to, as well To the Great Ocean by as a symbol of, great power and status.

But these ambitions were checked by the Russian state’s limited reach across these far-flung eastern territories.

The solution was found in the construction of the world’s longest railroad, the Great Siberian Railway.

  • 2015 Fly Fish Mongolia Journal Michael Caranci
    2015 Fly Fish Mongolia Journal Michael Caranci Thursday, June 11 The long travel day started early, awake at 3:30 am to get to the airport for my 5:40 am departure. The flight from Redding to SFO went smoothly, and by 7:30 am I was sitting down to a hot Yankee Pier breakfast and much needed cup of coffee. I had about 4 hours of layover, so wandered around the airport for a bit before finding my gate in the International terminal, where Larry was already waiting. We chatted for a bit, then found Bob and Cord, and before long we were all boarding the plane for the next leg of the journey. The plane was full, but for a 12 hour flight it wasn't too horrible. Fortunately I had a slender Korean girl sitting in the middle seat next to me, so actually room to breathe. They fed us a couple of times, normal airplane food not tragic but not great either. Sustenance at least. I napped for about an hour, but that was it and spent the rest of the time reading up on the history, culture, and politics of Mongolia. I have to admit that this trip just kind of happened, and Mongolia was never a place high on my angling radar. Sure, I’d heard about it, read about it, and the idea of catching a monster taimen was appealing. I knew that taimen were the largest salmonid on Earth, an ancient, slow-growing fish that lived up to 35 years or more and were the dominant predators in their ecosystem.

  • Food by Country
    Chapter 5 Food by Country Medieval chronicles speak of tribes living on dairy products and meat, trading for millet (or growing some), and trading for wheat products. Settled people had more elaborate cuisines, with spices typical of the neighboring civiliza- tions: Iranian, Indian, or Chinese, (depending on whether one speaks of West, South, or East within the larger region). Overall, cuisines were not diverse or complex. There was considerable local variation, as now, from oasis to oasis. The Yinshan Zhengyao is one of the few sources making an effort to mark local foods. A recipe for Kashmiri or Nepali curry, “Bal-po curry,” reveals a Tibetan informant for the dish. It is also the first known curry recipe, pre-chile, point- ing up many connections. Certainly, coming from Iran to Afghanistan convinces one that the food of the latter is basically provincial Persian. This is in spite of the use of turmeric and other characteristic Indian spices, and a few Indian beans such as mung beans in the areas closest to the Khyber Pass. Food language throughout much of Central Asia is not only Iranic, it is spe- cifically Farsi, complete with the heavy dose of Arabic loanwords (halwa, ka­ bab, sharbat…), typical of that language. Widespread food words from Farsi include: berenj and derivatives for rice, ash for stew, kuku for omelet-like egg dishes, and murgh for bird (usually understood to be chicken). Twentieth century sources still write of old foodways in remote areas, and indeed the diet of rural Mongolia is still usually dairy with some meat (usually tough boiled mutton), and flour foods.

  • This Is Our Favourite Dish
    WORKSHEET FOR TEACHERS | MONGOLIA THIS IS OUR FAVOURITE DISH Dinner is by far the most important meal in Mongolia. All family members gather together to have dinner. Families living in a flat in the city, sit around a big table, whereas families on the countryside sit on the floor or on small stools and eat from a lower table. If the main dish consists of cooked meat, it is often eaten out of one big, shared bowl. Prepare a typical Mongolian dish! Æ On the webpage you see several drawings of the children’s favourite dishes. Recipe for Buuz: One of those dishes is called “Buuz”. It’s a type of steamed dumpling, filled with minced mutton or yak meat. Flavour the meat with onion and garlic and add salt. Place the meatball inside a small pocket of dough (made of flour and water) and fold the dough around the ball. Leave a little opening at the top of your dumpling and steam it. “Buuz” is a typical Mongolian dish which is easy to make and eaten simply by hand. Buuz Picture: Wikipedia/Tamorlan Recipe for Khuushuur: Æ Another popular dish in Mongolia is “Khuushuur”. It’s a kind of meat pastry or dumpling. The meat, either beef or mutton, is minced and mixed with onions, salt and other spices. Roll the dough (made of flour and water) into circles, place the meat inside the dough and fold the dough in half, creating a flat half-circular pocket. Then close the pockets by pressing the edges together. Fry the pockets in oil until the dough turns golden brown.
