Below we have jotted down some few facts about Kyrgyzstan to help you acquaint more with their culture and tradition: The country is officially called "Kyrgyz Republic" whenever it is used in terms of international arenas and foreign relations. Whereas in the English-speaking world, the spelling Kyrgyzstan is more common while its former name Kirghizia is hardly used. In the 17th century, Kyrgyz tribes were overruled by the Mongols, by the Manchurian Qing dynasty in the mid-18th century, and by the Uzbek Khanate of Kokand in the early 19th century. Kyrgyz is closely associated with Turkic languages, the majority of the population are non- denominational Muslims. Russian remains widely spoken and is an official language in Kyrgyzstan.

  2. Ethnic Kyrgyz comprises up the majority of the six million people in the country, followed by significant minorities of Russians and Uzbeks. Kyrgyz culture also bears elements of Mongolian, Persian and Russian influence. Literally, Kyrgyz means we are forty and Kyrgyz is believed to have been derived from the Turkic word for "forty" meaning the forty clans of Manas, a legendary hero who united forty regional clans against the Uyghurs. The forty ray sun symbol present in the flag of Kyrgyzstan is a reference to those same forty tribes and the graphical element in the sun's center depicts tunduk, the wooden crown of a yurt—a portable dwelling traditionally used by nomads in the steppes of Central Asia.
