Why Kazakhstan is Insanely Empty

Goddamn

and still you got a great future ahead of you and a good growing economy. got some good stocks from your country.

Do you guys fear China or Russia ever coming in to your country today? Culturally, is there anti-Russian or Chinese sentiment? I've never met someone from Kazakhstan before, though I think Borat comes from there (joking).

@@rebeli-argum Is it really flirting with NATO? Kazakhstan seems to be doing a pretty good job leveraging its useful neutrality at the intersection (physical and cultural) of Russia, China, Turkey/Muslim World, and the West. (Xi Jinping guaranteed its territorial integrity after Putin invaded Ukraine!) Whereas, say, Austrian or Swiss neutrality after the Cold War is just depraved free-riding, Kazakh geography still makes sense for it to play all sides. Call it a giant Qatar.

@@jcliu swiss are not really neutral anymore. Macron wants Kazakhstan on the side of the west and to stop them trading with Russia because sanctions and all of that.

yeah technically we could claim to be the heirs of the USSR, but that would be dumb because at the time of its collapse the USSR had accumulated HUGE debts($100 Billion) that needed to be paid to the US and other Western countries and only Russia was able to repay them

Thats because if Kazakh government would break away from USSR before Russia, ethnic russians in Kazakhstan wouldve rebelled.

Thats why kazakh government was waiting for Russia to break away first, so not to cause a rebellion that was stirring in the North.

@@sickpoet2865 but what about the other former SSR states, minus maybe Transnistria in Moldova and Belarus (who remains an ally of Russia to this day)? Wouldn’t the ethnic Russians in those states have rebelled too?

Were there alot of Germans who came to Kazakhstan after the war? I know there were alot of forcible migrations in the Stalin days, but in school they only talked about migrations internal to the USSR, like the Crimean Tatars.

There were many Germans who where drawn in by the Russian Empire as settlers. They even had their own autonomous region within the USSR right next to Khazakstan around the lower Volga river. Shortly after the start of the war in 1941, Stalin accused them all (baselessly) of collaboration with Nazi-Germany. The Volga German ASSR was dismantled and ethnic Germans were deported to Siberia or Khazakstan. From the latter there are storys, that the German people were basically dumped in the middle of nowhere without any belongings. Not unlike the Crimean Tartars. Wouldn't call that "migration".

@@RastiGan "Forced migration" doesn't mean anything like what just "migration" means. English doesn't really have a phrase for things like those population transfers, because we don't have a word for "half-deportation, half-genocide".

You are a very tough people. Surviving two evil empires altogether demonstrated that.

So convenient of you to forget the fact that these empires were so hostile because they were ravaged by Central Asians for centuries. The Mongols and the Huns ransacked China more times than you could count and slaughtered people and the Russians were severely impacted by such raids too, so much so that the entire reason Russia exists was because they had to unify the Kievan Rus into a tsardom to increase their level of power to stop being massacred, sold into slavery and having their cities burnt down. I just find it hypocritical that people complain about the "white man" and conveniently forget about WHY they do stuff like this in the first place. The Mongols almost annihilated the Kievan Rus from existence it was so bad, you thought the Russians would let that happen again? Russia is so paranoid about war and invasions that they conquer the world in order to not be conquered because you burnt them so bad. The entire reason Russia took over Central Asia was to stop the barbarians from ransacking their nation.

@@user-ug6qu9se3e They aren't "evil." You forget China and Russia were annihilated by Genghis Khan as well as other Central Asian nomadic peoples who crippled them so badly that both China and Russia turned the tables as soon as they could and expanded into those lands to prevent it from ever happening again. War is natural for all societies. Stop acting like some moral crusader, there is NO such thing as good or evil, they are all convenient labels humans just make up in their head and throw at whatever, at whenever time they please.
