Shame! it is about Chinggis Khan's 2 horses, but someone has to say it is about the motherland of China.

One legend about the origin of the morin khuur is that a shepherd named Kuku Namjil received the gift of a magical winged horse; he would mount it at night and fly to meet his beloved. A jealous woman had the horses wings cut off, so that the horse fell from the air and died. The grieving shepherd made a horsehead fiddle from the now-wingless horse's bones, and used it to play poignant songs about his horse.

My favorite legend is that a boy called Suho found an orphan white colt and raised it to become the fastest horse in the steppes. When a jealous chieftain had the horse killed before a race the boy used the hide and the tail hairs to make the first Morin Khuur.

i think there are other stories, too.
