Kokand Autonomous State, 1917

Kokand Autonomous State, 1917

The Khanate of Kokand, established in 1709, was annexed by Russia in 1883 and became part of Russian Turkestan. After the Russian Revolution the anti-Bolshevik Provisional Government of Autonomous Turkistan (also known as Kokand Autonomy) was proclaimed in December 1917 and the Kokand Autonomous State became independent under Mustafa Chokai-Beg who hoisted a flag of red over dark blue with a white star and crescent in the centre. This lasted until 20 February 1918 when Soviet troops demolished much of Kokand and massacred thousands of its people.
