History

Ul boov is prepared by Mongolian Buddhists for the Mongolian lunar new year, Tsagaan Sar. Tsagaan Sar is a lavish feast, requiring preparation days in advance, as the men and women make large quantities of buuz as a whole family, along with ul boov, a pastry reserved for both dessert and presentation. During Mongolia's Communist period, the government banned Tsagaan Sar after Choibalsan's death in 1952 and tried to replace it with a holiday called "Collective Herder's Day", but the holiday was practiced again after the 1990 Democratic Revolution in Mongolia.[1]

gollark: Except the parser, which is not in that.
gollark: Due to quirkiness with my design process, actually all of the logic ever is part of what was intended to be the simplifer (replacing the overly general pattern matching and reduction engine).
gollark: Except it doesn't actually reduce it sometimes and I don't know why.
