I live in Kazakhstan and I can tell you the reason: in the 17th century there was a hundred-year war between the Kazakh Khanate and the Dzungaria, where more than 30% of the country's population died, then the Russian Empire came from the colonization, the Kazakhs rebelled, but nothing happened, then when the Reds came, that is, the Soviet Union of Kazakhs there were 6 million but because of the famine there are 2 million of us left

Stupid people claim that Kazakhstan is unlucky because Kazakhstan does not have a sea border. And if Kazakhstan had a sea border, then 300 years ago the British colonizers would have come and completely exterminated the entire local population, as they did in Australia and America. Kazakhs are lucky people because they lived inside the continent and the ships of the British Empire could not come close to the lands of the Kazakhs and could not completely destroy the entire Kazakh population

And when I asked my tour guide friend the next day, he informed me that temps in Astana can easily drop minus 40 degrees Celsius during winter. (2) Land Area: Driving to Burabay National Park, the tour guide told me that Northern Kazakhstan is similar to Siberia in Russia - a vast land with a lot of birch and pine trees wherein winters are the harshest. We also drove near the steppes, and it was very flat and you cannot see civilization, only grazing horses!

You left out an important part of Kazakh history, the Kazakh-Dzungar wars which started in the 1600s. The Dzungars were a western Mongol tribe that controlled a large portion of Xinjiang and southern Siberia and subjugated the Kazakhs, gaining territory as far west as Lake Balkhash. This wiped out a huge portion of the Kazakh population. Then from 1755-1757, the Manchus (Qing dynasty) sent an expedition out west and massacred 90% of the Dzungars with the help of the Turkic Uighurs and Kazakhs. As a result, Xinjiang today is home to mostly Turkic Muslim people rather than Mongol Buddhists and the Kazakhs never expanded past the Tian Shan and Altai mountains. The Russians swept south during their conquest of the steppe with little resistance.

Were there alot of Germans who came to Kazakhstan after the war? I know there were alot of forcible migrations in the Stalin days, but in school they only talked about migrations internal to the USSR, like the Crimean Tatars.

[@RastiGan]

There were many Germans who where drawn in by the Russian Empire as settlers. They even had their own autonomous region within the USSR right next to Khazakstan around the lower Volga river. Shortly after the start of the war in 1941, Stalin accused them all (baselessly) of collaboration with Nazi-Germany. The Volga German ASSR was dismantled and ethnic Germans were deported to Siberia or Khazakstan. From the latter there are storys, that the German people were basically dumped in the middle of nowhere without any belongings. Not unlike the Crimean Tartars. Wouldn't call that "migration".

[@Noname-e9k7k]

The Kazakh famine from 1930-1933 is something I was aware of, but only as the Soviet Republic hit hardest by the nationwide famine apart from only Ukraine, who experienced the horrors of the Holodomor, today widely considered a genocide.

The small population of Kazakhstan is associated with the climate and the famine of 1929-1933, part of the all-Union famine caused by the official policy of “destruction of the kulaks as a class,” collectivization, increased food procurement plans by the central authorities, and, in fact, the confiscation of livestock. If you take away up to 3 million of the population of Kazakhstan, then this is actually half the population of Kazakhs at that time. Since then, World War II has claimed the lives of countless people. But even despite the high birth rate of the Kazakh population. Only in the 70s were the Kazakhs able to reach the population level they had before the famine.

Heydar Jemal: Kazakhs today occupy a place determined by their past significance. That is, they are the descendants of those who were the backbone of Batu Khan’s army. The Kazakhs are direct descendants of those who took Kozelsk and Moscow, and their role in the military-political formation of the Horde is obvious. For now, the significance of the Kazakhs is of a historical nature, oriented to the past, and the potential for revealing the Kazakh people is waiting in the wings. This will happen within the framework of greater Turan, where Kazakhstan will be the backbone of Central Asia.

This is such a well researched and illustrated video, thank you for covering this topic and bringing it to attention of millions

[@leonardowynnwidodo9704]

Actually, Kazakhstan was the last Soviet state before the USSR fully dissolved, so Russia "broke away" from Kazakhstan in a sense.

[@betaincel]

yeah technically we could claim to be the heirs of the USSR, but that would be dumb because at the time of its collapse the USSR had accumulated HUGE debts($100 Billion) that needed to be paid to the US and other Western countries and only Russia was able to repay them

[@yb_Ali]

Thats because if Kazakh government would break away from USSR before Russia, ethnic russians in Kazakhstan wouldve rebelled.

[@yb_Ali]

Thats why kazakh government was waiting for Russia to break away first, so not to cause a rebellion that was stirring in the North.

[@leonardowynnwidodo9704]

@@yb_Ali but what about the other former SSR states, minus maybe Transnistria in Moldova and Belarus (who remains an ally of Russia to this day)? Wouldn’t the ethnic Russians in those states have rebelled too?

[@yb_Ali]

@@leonardowynnwidodo9704IN northern Kazakhstan, russians comprised like 70%-80% of the population. In all other republics russians were a minority, except eastern ukraine, where russians eventually rebelled.

For anybody wondering why some maps here of the country have a weird circle cut out in the center, that would be the Baikonur Cosmodrome, which is leased to Russia, so Kazahk authorities have only limited power there, as far as I know.

Kazakhstan has been conquered and colonized by Persians, Greeks, Persians again, Arabs, Mongolians, Ottomans, and finally the Russians. The traditional nomadic herding culture has gone on for millennia not changed all that much, though the ethnicity of these herders has likely changed much over time with influxes of Persians, Turks, Slavs, Mongolians, etc. It's a region that is in the middle of many historical regional powers, and thus was grabbed up multiple times by the new power of the day. It's sad, but it's also history. It is what it is. You can't change it. You can only try to overcome and flourish in the future.

I didn't realise how much Kazakhstan went through as a country. Sending love from your Mongolian cousin. Stalin was worse than HItler almost! He probably rotten in hell. And btw China should return Shinjian, Inner Mongolia and all the rest of our land back to Mongolia and Kazakhstan. Kazahs went almost the same atrocities as the Mongols under the oppression of Soviets and China. We're growing and the Central Asian nomads once again started to thrive. And btw Russia also should return Buryats, Tuvans, Baikhal lake and Siberia back to Mongols.

I am from Uzbekistan and I can tell you that Central Asia is the unluckiest region on earth. We were subjugated and conquered by the Chinese (during the Tang), and later the Russians. And both of them wanted to depopulate us long ago, hell there were even eradication of Western Turkic population (it was the Tang that a massive Turkic population fled west), and then Russian imperialism. We were so lucky to survive today.

You are a very tough people. Surviving two evil empires altogether demonstrated that.

[@maozedong8370]

So convenient of you to forget the fact that these empires were so hostile because they were ravaged by Central Asians for centuries. The Mongols and the Huns ransacked China more times than you could count and slaughtered people and the Russians were severely impacted by such raids too, so much so that the entire reason Russia exists was because they had to unify the Kievan Rus into a tsardom to increase their level of power to stop being massacred, sold into slavery and having their cities burnt down. I just find it hypocritical that people complain about the "white man" and conveniently forget about WHY they do stuff like this in the first place. The Mongols almost annihilated the Kievan Rus from existence it was so bad, you thought the Russians would let that happen again? Russia is so paranoid about war and invasions that they conquer the world in order to not be conquered because you burnt them so bad. The entire reason Russia took over Central Asia was to stop the barbarians from ransacking their nation.

[@maozedong8370]

@@МихайлоВербицький-ф9л They aren't "evil." You forget China and Russia were annihilated by Genghis Khan as well as other Central Asian nomadic peoples who crippled them so badly that both China and Russia turned the tables as soon as they could and expanded into those lands to prevent it from ever happening again. War is natural for all societies. Stop acting like some moral crusader, there is NO such thing as good or evil, they are all convenient labels humans just make up in their head and throw at whatever, at whenever time they please.

[@MrMangistau]

I appreciate that you call our people 'Kazak'. The term was distorted to differentiate Russian Cossacks, although the actual name was initially Turkic and nomadic, meaning 'people without rulers' or 'free people'. The first Kazaks were nomadic people who were left without a ruler due to the disintegration of the Golden Horde. With the establishment of serfdom in Muscovy, serfs began to flee to the nomadic steppes and join the nomadic Kazaks. Gradually, ethnically Kazaks predominantly became Slavic. Later, during the expansion of Muscovy, these Slavic Kazaks started to serve Moscow and became part of Muscovy, playing a significant role in further expanding the Russian Empire into Siberia and Central Asia.
