The Profiles analyze trends and policy developments and make an overall assessment of the political, economic and social framework of a country’s housing and land management sectors. This work was initiated by the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) Committee on Housing and Land Management in the early 1990s in response to requests from UNECE Member States. The studies are carried out by international teams of experts in cooperation with government bodies, other international organizations, non-government organizations (NGOs), local authorities, and the private sector. Through a process of broad consultation, the experts undertake a comprehensive review of the housing and land management sectors and develop recommendations to help policymakers to address urban and rural development challenges. This Country Profile on Uzbekistan’s housing and land management sectors, prepared at the request of the Government of Uzbekistan, is the eighteenth in the series. The Country Profile programme continues to focus on specific challenges or achievements in the housing and land management sectors that are particularly relevant to the country under review. In the case of Uzbekistan, these issues include housing policies and Government support measures for the construction of housing in rural areas; increased demand for housing of the fast-growing population; and depleted urban infrastructure inherited from the Soviet times. This Country Profile report lays out a set of policy recommendations. Their timely and effective implementation is regarded as crucial to meeting the challenges Uzbekistan currently faces in the areas of housing and land management. I would like to thank the international and local experts who contributed to the preparation of this Country Profile, as well as those who provided financial and in-kind support, including the UNDP Country Office in Uzbekistan and the Russian Federation. I invite all those with an interest in Uzbekistan’s housing and land management sectors - policymakers and legislators, Government officials, academics, NGOs and other national stakeholders, as well as international organizations, lender and donor organizations, technical assistance agencies and private sector investors - to make full use of the information and recommendations contained in the study. It can serve as a framework for future action, and can help shape programmes at the national and local levels. Finally, I would like to stress the relevance of the Country Profile reviews as unique instruments that allow UNECE countries to share experiences on housing and land management issues; to compare trends and gain knowledge from different practices; to adopt policies and planning tools; and to learn about actions implemented. Our experience has shown that Country Profiles are a practical policy tool that all stakeholders concerned can use to address development-related challenges in the housing and land management sectors, most particularly in countries with emerging economies such as Uzbekistan. Christian Friis Bach Executive Secretary United Nations Economic Commission for Europe v ABOUT THE UNECE COUNTRY PROFILES ON HOUSING AND LAND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED PUBLICATIONS This Country Profile on the housing and land management sectors of Uzbekistan was requested by the Government of Uzbekistan and began with a preparatory mission by the UNECE Secretariat. A fact-finding mission by the international expert team was carried out in June 2014. The project’s expenses were covered by the UNDP Country Office in Uzbekistan and by funds provided by the Russian Federation. The successful conclusion of the project would not have been possible without this generous support. Previous studies in the series include Bulgaria (ECE/HBP/101, published in 1996), Poland (ECE/HBP/107, 1998), Slovakia (ECE/HBP/111, 1999), Lithuania (ECE/HBP/117, 2000), Romania (ECE/HBP/124, 2001), Republic of Moldova (ECE/HBP/125, 2002), Albania (ECE/HBP/130, 2002), Armenia (ECE/HBP/132, 2004), Russian Federation (ECE/HBP/131, 2004), Serbia and Montenegro (ECE/HBP/139, 2006), Georgia (ECE/HBP/143, 2007), Belarus (ECE/HBP/150, 2008), Kyrgyzstan (ECE/HPB/157, 2010), Azerbaijan (ECE/HBP/160, 2010), Tajikistan (ECE/HBP/163, 2011), Ukraine (ECE/HBP/176, 2013), and the Republic of Moldova (ECE/HBP/181, 2015). Other UNECE publications related to housing may also prove useful to Uzbekistan and other countries in transition: Guidelines on Condominium Ownership of Housing for Countries in Transition (ECE/HBP/123, 2003); Housing Finance Systems for Countries in Transition: Principles and Examples (ECE/HBP/138, 2005); Guidelines on Social Housing: Principles and Examples (ECE/HBP/137, 2006); Self-Made Cities: In Search of Sustainable Solutions for Informal Settlements in the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe Region (ECE/HBP/155, 2009); Green Homes: Toward Energy-Efficient Housing in the United Nations Economic Commission

KEYWORDS: Kyrgyz, Kipchak, tribe, khan, governor, mirshab, Kokand, channel, feudal, valley. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DISCUSSION In the first half of the XIX century, the Kokand khanate was the largest region in Central Asia. The Kokand khanate was bordered by East Turkestan in the east, the Bukhara Emirate and the Khiva Khanate in the west. The territory of the khanate in the north was completely subjugated by three Kazakh juzes and bordered by Russia. The southern borders of the khanate included mountainous areas such as Karategin, Kulob, Darvaz, Shogunan. For these regions, there will be bloody wars with the Emirate of Bukhara, which passed from hand to hand. The territory of the Kokand khanate, in contrast to the Bukhara emirate and the Khiva khanate had many wetlands, valleys and fertile lands. The center of the khanate was the Fergana Valley, where such large cities as Kokand, Margilan, Uzgen, Andizhan, and Namangan were located. Large cities such as Tashkent, Shymkent, Turkestan, Avliyota, Pishtak, Oqmasjid were also under the rule of Kokand khanate. The population of the Kokand khanate is relatively dense, about 3 million.
