Claim: On 1 May 1947, the Inner Mongolian Autonomous Government was established in eastern Inner Mongolia under the guidance of the Chinese Communist Party, with Ulanfu, a veteran Chinese Communist Party member of Mongol ethnicity, becoming its president; this created the Inner Mongolian Autonomous Region within a Communist-led Chinese state rather than an independent Mongol state, and many ethnic Mongols held positions within its government.
