HISTORY OF CREATION SOVIET OF KARAKALPAK STATEHOOD

Abstract

The purpose of the research is to reveal the features of the creation of the Soviet Karakalpak state. The article considers the processes of formation of the Karakalpak Autonomous region and its subsequent transformation from an independent region to an independent Republic. The conditions for administrative division in the Soviet state are shown. The article focuses on the fact that the entry of Karakalpakstan directly into Russia in the mid-1930s accelerated the process of transformation of Karakalpakstan from an independent region to an independent Republic. It is also noted that one of the reasons for joining Karakalpakstan to Russia and after its transformation into a political autonomy was the popular uprisings and rallies that took place in 1929-1930 in Karakalpakstan, directed against the Soviet government. The scientific novelty of the work is that based on the identified new archival documents, it is determined that the level of economic, political and cultural development of Karakalpakstan allowed it to obtain political autonomy. As a result of this research, the stages that the Karakalpak people went through during the existence of the Soviet-type state are analyzed in detail. KEYWORDS: the Soviet government, the state, the administrative-territorial division, national division, Karakalpakstan, an Autonomous region, the transformation.
