Abstract
In-depth study of the history of Central Asia and Eurasia from antiquity to the present day should become one of the most important tasks of world history in the Republic of Kazakhstan. The IV-VII centuries were recorded in the history of Eurasia and Europe as the era of the Great Migration. The Great Migration was a turning point in world history, the foundation of which was laid by the Hunnish tribal union moving from the depths of Central Asia to the western parts of the European continent. Studying and teaching the history of the Huns in terms of the interrelation between world and national history is of great theoretical and practical significance for university education. Additionally, in the history of Europe and Eurasia, world history specialists should start a systematic study of the long-standing problems of the Turkic world history of this period. First of all, it is the history of the Avarian Kaganate of the VI-VIII centuries, the Turkic speaking Avars, who came from the Eurasian steppes to the Huns’ former settlements in Pannonia. There is a need for an objective exposition of the history of the West and the East during the period of the Crusades. Historians should also study the history of the Golden Horde, which originally was part of the great Mongol Empire, in detail. In this regard, this article is an attempt to define the major issues of Eurasian history which are considered to be problems of world history too.

The Department of World History, Historiography and Source Studies of Al-Farabi Kazakh National University has already established itself as a centre for training highly qualified specialists on world history in the Republic of Kazakhstan
Summary
It should be noted that, the history of the Huns and some aspects of Eurasian history did not take its proper place in textbooks and learning aids on world history, in the courses “Ancient History” and “History of the Middle Ages” in the Soviet era. These topics were hardly covered except for some brief reviews or mentions. I.e. those located in Moscow and Leningrad, monopolized the study of world history, and scientific staff were trained mainly in Moscow, Leningrad, Kiev and other cities
