Other notes were also given in the Han Shu chronicle, which the historian Ban Gu tells us. According to scientists, the homeland of the Kyrgyz was East Turkestan, where their territory was.

After their arrival, they were able to suppress the culture of the Turks. Guests can rent a car and find out that Genghis Khan took over the Yenisei Kyrgyz in 1207.

Become a tourist of our company and you will be able to find out how in the 15th century the country was an eyewitness to how people moved massively from southern Siberia. For this reason, they did not have a state from the 15th century until the 19th century. There were tribes that wanted to create a single state with a single leader. Their attempts were futile, but new tribes emerged, with views on independence and a political system.
From the 18th century to the 19th century, the Kyrgyz people expressed a desire to join the Russian Empire. Subsequently, he sent several times his ambassadors to inform the Russian leadership about the desire of the Kyrgyz people to join the country. The North of the Kyrgyz wanted to join the Russian Empire because of constant threats and attacks. Threats came not only from external regions, but also from internal ones. The South did not support the idea of annexation and for this reason was annexed by force. But in the end, the accession led to the fact that people moved from a nomadic lifestyle to a sedentary one, began to engage in agriculture and lead a household.
The Bolsheviks seized power in the Russian Empire in the early 20th century in 1917. They were against the exploitation of the people and put forward that all people will be equal before each other. This can be called the beginning of the Soviet Union. after that, the development of the country's political and cultural life began. The development of the educational sphere has also begun. People change their statehood to an Autonomous region rather than a Republic. And the most tragic thing at this time was that people did not have the right to believe in God or in any faith. In the end, all this led to the murder of civilians.
In 1991, the Soviet Union was destroyed, and Kyrgyzstan gained independence after that. People tried to start a new life after independence, but this collapse only led to a decrease in living standards, unemployment and a crisis in the political, social and economic spheres. After gaining independence, Kyrgyzstan gained its own flag and coat of arms. Then in 1992 it joined the UN, and in 1993 it had its own Constitution. The country remained unstable, which eventually led to internal conflicts and 2 revolutions that occurred in 2005 and 2010. But at the moment, the country lives in calmness. Here you can conduct tours and enjoy your trip.
