Transcription and evaluation of the Bukhara Uzbek Khanate chronicle "Muhitü't-Tevarih" [Vr. 430a-489a]

Due to its geopolitical and strategic location, the geography of Turkestan has been one of the most important living spaces for both the former homeland of the Turkish states and today's Turkish world. Although the majority of the states established in this geography have shaped the world history, by the turn of the XVII. century, the Turkish states began to lose their former power. One of these states was the Bukhara Uzbek Khanate. In the 1500s, when the Bukhara Uzbek Khanate was formed, the highest level of prosperity was experienced during the Shibanid period.

The only reason for this acceptance is that they are descended from Chingis. The dynasty that seized the throne of Bukhara after the Shibanids became the Astrakhanids, founded by the Uzbeks who migrated from Astrakhan. However, this period is the period when the stagnation process started for the Bukhara Uzbek Khanate. The defeats in the wars with the Safavids and the Khiva Khanate and the struggles between the members of the dynasty who wanted to seize the throne dragged the state into such a situation. Especially in the period of Subhan Kulu Khan, the chronicle of the period "Muhitü't-Tevarih" serves as a historical map to understand how much the state was worn out as a result of the struggle with the Khiva Khanate.
