Correct answer: Mongolian script

The traditional Mongolian script was adapted from the Uyghur alphabet in the early 13th century on the orders of Genghis Khan. It is unique for being one of the very few vertical scripts written from left to right. Today, Mongolia is working to fully restore its official use alongside Cyrillic.
