Life in Kokand on the Eve of the Third Millennium At that time, in addition to the whole Ferghana Valley, the cities of Tashkent and Turkestan, the Kazakhs of the Greater Horde and the Semirechye, the Kyrgyz of the Tian Shan and the Pamirs and much of the territory of modern Tajikistan were under the authority of the khan of Kokand. This is largely due to the events of 1918, when the Tashkent Soviet defeated the Muslim Provisional Government of Autonomous Turkestan only three months after it had been set up, destroying nearly all of the mosques and madrassahs in the city and slaughtering thousands in the process. The result is a city with a rich history, but little to show for it as far as architectural monuments. www.oxuscom.com /kokand.htm
