Roman von Ungern-Sternberg was a Baltic German in military service to the Russian Empire, Czarist forces in revolutionary Russia, and later the short-lived Bogd Khanate.

Bio[edit | edit source]

Born to a family of Baltic-German aristocracy settling in Estonia, a young Roman was known for three traits: His short fuse, his fascination with Mongolia, and his stark display of class consciousness (in the sense that the working class better keep working, or else). While already having joined the Tsarist Russian Army around 1905, he chiefly rose to (in)famy during World War 1.

Owing to his personal politics, the Bolshevik revolution sent the Baron's already irritable temper well beyond the boiling point. He joined the White Russians in order to to re-establish the Russian monarchy, but eventually came to realize his superiors among the Whites were more interested in returning rule of law through the Russian Constituent Assembly. This pissed him off even more.

In an cruel twist of fate, Qing China decided to use the mayhem in Russia in order to annex hitherto independent Mongolia. Von Ungern-Sternberg, who believed his family to have Hungarian ancestry going back to Batu Khan himself; was positively livid at this point. He dropped his war against the Reds (which he was losing anyway) and rode out to kill some Chinese.

To the Mad Baron's defense, this actually worked out - in as much as that he helped the Bogd Khan back unto his theocratic throne, and earned the title of 'Khan' himself. Alas, his entire plan of rebuilding the continent-spanning Mongol Empire (and his tendency to murderfuck everyone who gave him a mean look) sort of failed because everyone considered him to be violently off his rocker.

Long story short, the Bogd Khanate got clapped by the Chinese six months after its establishment, and von Ungern-Sternberg was executed by the vengeful Soviets.

In 8chanmania[edit | edit source]

Roman von Ungern-Sternberg fought in the board war of 8chanmania LXII, where he represented /monarchy/. His fight against the Rotom-Heat of Adolf Hitler came with some spicy bantz after the Baron requited Hitler's admiration by politely telling the peasant 'Führer' to fuck off, but nonetheless ended in the defeat of the aristocrat.
