| '''Agvaan Luvsan Choijinnyam Danzan Vanchüg''' (c. 1869 – 1924 May 20), commonly known by the title of '''Bogd Khan''', was the ruler of [[Bogd Khanate of Mongolia (1911–1924)|Mongolia]] from its 1911 independence from the [[Qing dynasty (1636–1912)|Qing dynasty]] until the 1921 [[Mongolian People's Revolution]].

| After the Qing occupation of Mongolia was overthrown in 1911, the feudal [[nobility]] led by the Bogd Khan took power. [[Yuan Shikai]], the new ruler of [[Republic of China|China]], refused to recognize Mongolia's independence.<ref name=":0">{{Citation|author=A. A.

| The Bogd Khan sent [[Tserenchimed]] to [[Empire of Japan (1868–1947)|Japan]] and requested a Japanese protectorate over Mongolia, which Japan refused in order to avoid angering [[Russian Empire (1721–1917)|Russia]]. In 1913 February, Mongolia formed a brigade in the Russian army with 1,900 soldiers. The Bogd Khan withdrew his troops from Inner Mongolia in 1913, and Russia withdrew its troops from Outer Mongolia in 1914.<ref name=":0" /><sup>:240–7</sup>

| The Bogd Khan allied with the pro-Japanese Anhui clique of Chinese warlords, who invaded Mongolia in 1918. In mid-1919, after retaking the East, the Soviet government abolished all unequal treaties Russia had had with Mongolia. The Khan rejected the Whiteguard [[Grigory Semyonov|Semyonov]]'s plan to unify all Mongol lands into a single state that Japan could control, which collapsed in 1919.<ref name=":03">{{Citation|author=A.
