List of heads of state of Mongolia

For heads of state of Mongolia prior to 1911, see List of Mongol rulers.

The Constitution of Mongolia adopted in 1992 states that the President of Mongolia is the "head of state and embodiment of the unity of the Mongolian people".[1]

Mongolia declared its independence from the Qing dynasty during the Mongolian Revolution of 1911,[a] under the Bogd Khan (the 8th Jebtsundamba Khutuktu). From 1911 to 1924, during the Bogd Khanate of Mongolia, the head of state of Mongolia was nominally the Bogd Khan. During 1924 to 1992, during the Mongolian People's Republic, the official title of the head of state underwent several changes, including Chairman of the State Great Khural, Chairman of the Presidium of the State Little Khural, Chairman of the Presidium of the State Great Khural, and finally, Chairman of the Presidium of the People's Great Khural.
