Why is Kazakhstan the only one of the five Central Asian countries so large?

Asia is the largest plate in the world, and then the Eurasian continent has been floating on the Earth's surface all these years. China has the third largest land area in the world, with 9.6 million square kilometers of land and 1.3 billion Chinese people. But some countries have a small land area, but there are also some strange things.

Like some countries in Europe, most of them are relatively close in size. In Central Asia, there are five countries in the region, of which Kazakhstan is as large as the other four. That's the weird thingBecause the political factors in Central Asia and the Middle East are still relatively stable, some countries pay attention to balanced development, but Kazakhstan is so large because it was originally a Soviet region.

1. Kazakhstan was originally from the Soviet Union, and the Soviet Union was once the world's largest combination of political powers, and also had the largest land area in the world. With the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union was finally dragged down by the United States, and it collapsed after being very backward economically. This was the biggest event of the late 20th century, when after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the original countries grabbed their own land and the equipment of the former Soviet Union.

Kazakhstan has grabbed most of the land, and although the area is not large, it is a giant compared to the other four countries in Central Asia. This is because the area of the Soviet Union was originally very large, and Kazakhstan inherited a lot. <

2. There is Russia's support in thisAfter the collapse of the Soviet Union, most of the industrial and military equipment was not in the hands of Russia, and Russia still had a deterrent effect on other countries that once constituted the Soviet Union, and it could be regarded as being able to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries. Russia is behind Kazakhstan because most of the people in Kazakhstan are Russians, and Russia has completely invaded their country. Russia's relations with Europe are not very good, which requires Central Asia to act as a buffer, and Russia is supporting Kazakhstan.

It's also a game of nations, and they're going to negotiate a political balance, and if you have a force behind you, then you can break that balance. At the same time, Kazakhstan is large because the Kazakhs fought bravely and skillfully, forcibly seized most of the land, laid their foundations, and with the collapse of the Soviet Union, they got some benefits, that is, they were a single family, but we now see that the other four countries together are only as large as Kazakhstan. This has the historical and political reasons behind him.

Why is East Asia the largest only in China?

Because historically, the territory of Kazakhstan was much larger than in modern times.

More than half of the people of Kazakhstan are Russians, and due to the influence of the USSR, after the collapse of the USSR, they deliberately made Kazakhstan the largest in size.

This is because Kazakhstan was separated from the former Soviet Union, which was the largest in Central Asia because of its vast area.

Because Kazakhstan originally belonged to the USSR, was separated from the USSR, and Russia also supported it.

Kazakhstan and China are permanent and comprehensive strategic partners!

In Turkic, "stan" means state. Of the five countries, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan are located in the Syr Darya and Amu Darya valleys and are very small. Only Kazakhstan, with its vast territory spanning Europe and Asia, is the largest landlocked country in the world.

The topography of Kazakhstan is mainly divided into two parts: east and west. To the west is the lowlands of the Turan Plain and the Caspian Sea coast, where the Eurasian border is located. From there, it continues westward into the South Russian Plain.

To the east is the vast Kazakh hills, stretching from the Pamirs in the south to the southern edge of the West Siberian Plain in the north.

The active Kazakh nomads generally occupy the valley of the Seven Rivers in the southeast, and then they can advance from west to north along the hilly terrain. Almost the whole of Kazakhstan, covered with steppes and wastelands, can become mobile pastures for nomads. On the other hand, the various states of stan in the south are either located in mountainous areas with dense plateaus (Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan) or in oases between the Amu Darya and Syr Darya rivers.

Factors such as agriculture, settlement, and animal husbandry predominated, lacking a sustained momentum to expand the territory northward.

The formation of Kazakhstan dates back to the beginning of the 15th century, when the Golden Horde, which was scattered in the lower Volga and the steppes of South Russia, was full of internal strife. Nomadic tribes in the northern part of the Caspian Sea came to the basins of the Seven Rivers and the Chu River in southern Kazakhstan under the guise of "refugees". On this basis, the nomadic Kazakh Khanate, which covered most of today's Kazakhstan, was gradually established, and the tribal system of the later large, medium and small tribal groups was gradually formed, and all the nomadic tribes in the Kipchak steppe were incorporated into the management system of the khanate, and finally the territorial scale of today's Kazakhstan was established.

Although the Kazakh Khanate became the territory of Tsarist Russia in the 19th century, the status of the Kazakh people as the main body of the state has never changed, and after the establishment of the Soviet Union, it became a relatively independent member state, laying the foundation for independent development after the collapse of the Soviet Union.

Central Asia is the central region of Asia, and the Central Asian countries include six countries, namely Turkmenistan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan and Afghanistan. Total area: 10,000 square kilometers.

Kazakhstan is the largest in terms of area.
