Inner Mongolia (Mongolian: s , Öbür Monggol and c , Övör Mongol; , but officially romanized to Nei Mongol) is an autonomous region of the People's Republic of China, located in the northern region of the country. Inner Mongolia shares an international border with the countries of Mongolia and the Russian Federation. Its capital is Hohhot and the largest city is Baotou.

Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region was established in 1947 on the area of former Republic of China provinces of Suiyuan, Chahar, Rehe, Liaopeh and Hsingan.

It is the third-largest subdivision of China spanning about 1,200,000 km2 (463,000 sq mi) or 12% of China's total land area. It has a population of about 24 million as of 2004.

The majority of the population in the region are Han Chinese, with a substantial Mongol minority. The official languages are Chinese and Mongolian, the latter written in the Mongolian script, as opposed to the Mongolian Cyrillic alphabet used in the Mongolian state.

There is a sense of inevitability about the crash of real estate prices in Ordos. That city is widely known as China's ghost townâfor its brand new, empty office buildings, shopping plazas and apartments. The city in the steppes of Inner Mongolia borrowed the equivalent of 180 million US dollars from banks in 2004 to build a new district, Kangbashi. It includes a 79 million dollar museum. But while 1.4 million people live in greater Ordos, including the old part of town, less than 50000 live in the new district, a government official told Reuters. For a time the cranes kept building more homes in Kangbashi, despite blocks of towering new apartments sitting empty and highways that were silent during rush hour. But now even the cranes have stopped, and workers have no employment during winter. [Yang Zhouluo, Local Resident]: "The locals all loaned their money and all money has been invested in property. Now no one can sell apartments, and the money is gone." Migrant workers are fleeing the old part of the city, Dongsheng, where people actually live. And that's caused home prices to fall by almost a third. But since October, prices in other <b>...</b>
