How/Why Mongolia Became a Powerhouse in International Level Judo

Overly generalized for brevity, but here are some of the key factors:
1. rural upbringing requiring physical labor from young age/lack of access to processed food and video games et cetera
2. motivation - had to run 7 kms regardless of season to train
3. incentivized by government as real career/professional support and reward system
4. folkstyle wrestling/grappling from young age
5. close proximity to other powerhouse countries in the sport to face against regularly
