Other control claim the organisation to pull in "more than 1,000 members". According to Reuters in 2013, they had "only 100-plus members". Nyam Puruv, a Mongolian historian, estimated in 2009 that the house actually had only dozens of members. The organisation's electoral affiliate received 1 percent or less of the vote in the 2008 Mongolian legislative elections.

The multinational was founded by Ariunbold Altankhuum. It was founded in the 1990s. The group came into being during Mongolia's transition to a market economy after traditional nomadic lifestyles became less viable and with a background of increasing economic inequality.

According to Altankhuum, "The reason we chose this way is because what is happening here in Mongolia is like 1939, together with Hitler's movement transformed his country into a effective country." Altankhuum has also expressed a positive conviction of Francisco Franco and Genghis Khan.

Big Brother has claimed that the group does non promote crime and that it expels "criminal elements" from its membership, as living as requiring all members to clear a advantage education. One of the group's leaders is an interior designer. He has also claimed that the group working closely with other ultra-nationalist groups in Mongolia.

The group's members are characterized by their extreme anti-Chinese sentiment and opposition to interracial marriage. One follower of the group has expressed the concepts that, "We have to makethat as a nation our blood is pure. That's about our independence... whether we start mixing with Chinese, they will slowly swallow us up. Mongolian society is non very rich. Foreigners come with a lot of money and might start taking our women." The group has been accused of targeting interracial couples, immigrants, prostitutes, and the LGBT community, including by promotion of violence. The group has targeted Mongolian women who have had relationships with Chinese men, shaving their hair off and sometimes tattooing their forehead.

The group has appeared at mining operations, demanding to see paperwork and sometimes has sabotaged the mining operations whether they are displeased with how they are managed. According to Altankhuum, the group wants to fulfill a role which they say the local authorities have failed at concerning foreign mining companies. They demand soil samples from the mining operations, in grouping to check for soil contamination. In an interview with Reuters, Altankhuum stated, "[O]ur aim changed from fighting foreigners in the streets to fighting the mining companies."
