Internet The Internet, established in 1995 in Mongolia, has begun making a significant impact, with 68.1% of the population having access to it as of 2020. Mongolia is the most sparsely populated independent country in the world, which is a serious constraint to country-wide Internet deployment. While much of the country remains pastoral with countryside residents dependent on herding and agriculture, Internet access is widely available to urban populations. There has been steady online growth in online newspapers, magazines and advertising. The poor access to the Internet in the countryside has been a reason behind designating Mongolian countryside as a digital detox location for the tech-tired tourists. Internet users: 2,233,000 users; 68.1% of the population (2020). Fixed broadband: 115,561 subscriptions, 98th in the world; 3.6% of the population, 114th in the world (2012). Mobile broadband: 848,391 subscriptions, 75th in the world; 26.7% of the population, 61st in the world (2012). Internet hosts: 20,084 hosts, 118th in the world (2012).
