The Four Oirats (Dorben Oirad) or the Alliance of the Four Oirat tribes was the confederation of the Oirat tribes, which marked the rise of the Western Mongols in history of Mongolia. Despite the universal currency of the term Four Oirats among Eastern Mongols and Oirats and numerous explanations by historians, no consensus has been reached on the identity of the original four tribes.

  • The Four Oirats (Dorben Oirad) or the Alliance of the Four Oirat tribes was the confederation of the Oirat tribes, which marked the rise of the Western Mongols in history of Mongolia. Despite the universal currency of the term Four Oirats among Eastern Mongols and Oirats and numerous explanations by historians, no consensus has been reached on the identity of the original four tribes. While it is believed that the term Four Oirats refers Choros, Torghud, Dorbed and Khoid, there is a theory that the Oirats were not consangineal units but political-ethnic units, composed of many patrilineages.
