Is there anymore information on his daughter & how she became a broadcaster? It is weird how she just became a radio broadcaster as soon as she moved to Afghanistan.

Shame on you.

True, true
That photo is from 1911 but yet it’s more higher quality than all UFO spotted videos
Cant go wrong with film
You spotted a UFO? Better lower the resolution!
They look highly edited for the worse
Fr
Most if not all of those UFO sights are outright lies, otherwise those would be filmed in 8k at this point.
He was also the last ruler that can be traced dynastically from Genghis Khan
edit: this is apparently incorrect
That’s disputed
@EyeZackZin he was jochid and there is a problem about paternity of jochi khan
@EyeZackZin No, Borte, Jochi's mother was kidnapped and raped by Merkits. After her rescue she gave birth to Jochi, who Temujin swore was his, but its uncertain
@EyeZackZin No, the identity of Jochi's mother wasn't disputed. It was disputed whether or not Jochi was actually the son of Genghis Khan, since Jochi's mother (Genghis Khan's wife) was abducted and raped by a tribe that were enemies with Genghis Khan. 9 months after Jochi's mother was rescued, she gave birth to him. SInce Jochi's exact conception date is unknown, it is disputable whether he was truly a son of Genghis. But i'm basing that solely on the Extra Credits series on Genghis Khan, so take my comment with a grain of salt.
Ok my dudes no idea as to who is right here but I'm suuuper interested as I always heard the first story with temujins wife getting raped and then jochi being born.

I love Produkin-Gorsky's photos. The "digital remastering" of them is just incredible. Strange to think such vibrant and clear pictures were taken before World War I!
I have a camera like Gorsky's actually
I remember seeing his photos from across the Russian empire on the internet and I was very surprised how well they turned out, I'd have never guessed they were so old based on how good they looked
I am kinda ashamed that I only knew him from hoi4...
not alone bro
We each have our own routes to knowledge 🤷 Nothing to be ashamed of there. I suspect most of the world have no idea who this is.

At least you know him. Most people don't.
It's always fascinating learning about stories that we don't really get in history class. Like, in class when we talk about the Bolshevik revolution, the civil war is mostly glazed over as "the white army was disorganized and the red army won". It is really intriguing to see a little bit of the central Asian perspective, one not often seen in many history books at least here in America, on such an important period in history.
Where did men's fashion go so wrong? I feel like it's time to bring this back lads.
Maybe people still sometimes wear this sort of clothes in central asia
Modern Western fashion ruined everything.
I did a project on the Prokudin-Gorsky photos in college. The portraits in the collection are pretty phenomenal. I always did wonder about the story of the Bukharan emir. Thanks for this.
Wow. I'm impressed. I've been following this chanel for over a year and impressed by many videos but this one takes the top for me. I lived in Tajikistan for two years and got to know the Country as well as Uzbekistan very well. I've been to Bukhara a few times and loved to visit the Ark, the Amir's fortress. As well as seeing the Palace of the Stars and Moon, a beautiful place with roaming Peacocks, their symbol of royalty. I heard about the stories of the two British men who were imprisoned in the Bug Pit and how horrible the torture was. And as for this Amir, the last descendant of Genghais Khan to hold the title "Khan", was actually an ancestor of my best friend from Tajikistan. After the Bolsheviks kicked the Amir out of Bukhara, he fled to a small town name Hisor (somtimes spelled Gisar) and stayed there until the Bolsheviks kicked him out, then fleeing to Kabul. The Bukharans did fight the Bolsheviks a bit, but it was an uphill fight. Even the Basmachi couldn't beat the Red Army. You've done a great job in this video, and I personally would love to see more topics about the Emirates of Bukhara and Khiva, and Central Asia as a whole since this is a region not commonly spoken about. Thank you for showing people about a history that they may not have known about.
That period of the Great Game is always interesting but it's a tragic tale of how the British spy and the rescuer end up beheaded and how the second rescue barely escapes with his life. enabling to document the even.
Side note: There's a fascinating tid bit where the third guy, Joseph Wolff, who escaped. Wife was the descendent of the First Prime Minster of Britain (Robert Walpole).
I read he fled with his daughter in 1920. She would have to be at least 101 years old if she were still alive, and I couldn't find anything after 2002 about her. She probably died in obscurity.
He lived till 1944 in exile. His daughter was likely born after being deposed.
he could have had another daughter
She died in Kabul
No the daughter name is Shukria Alimi Raad she actually lives in us and was part of voa
“Since the official language was Persian, he would be whipped for speaking in Tajik.”
That’s a remarkably extreme policy enforcement considering Tajik is a dialect of Persian.
It's in the same family as farsi/Persian
But I believe it's considered a sperate language
Like Kurdish ossetian balochi Pashto.
The official language of the Bukhara Emirate was 2 Chagatai and Tajik languages

That photo is kind of bizarre. Like, modern technology (for that time) is able to capture the last expression of a bygone age or kings and emirs.
We need more videos like this
I mostly remember him as that guy who was always appearing in my history books but don't know who he actually was. By the way I wasn't talking about textbooks.

Hey Mr. Tigerstar, I am drawing a map on 1919, because the end of World War I meant that a lot of things changed, and to show how many wars there were after the war to end all wars, I wanted to ask about the many countries that kinda fell into the open after the whole ordeal. You had countries that declared from Austria in the Galician parts that I hadn’t known to have any military other than a government, do you have any good sources?

@Roshaun Roache he originated in the Ferghana valley in present day Uzbekistan. Was Turkic claiming descent from both Genghis/Chinggis Khan and Tamerlame/Ameer Timur. He would go onto invade India displacing the last of the dynasties forming the Delhi Sultanate (i.e Lodhis) and defeating other formidable rajas including Rana Singha. He founded the Mughal dynasty a vibrant mixture of India meets Persianized Turk Muslims.

3:20 Persian and Tajik are both one language. They are dialects.
Of Farsi?
@@NathanDudani Yes. Farsi and Tajiki are basically one language. There are 3 dialects of Persian, Farsi in Iran, Dari in Afghanistan and Tajiki in Tajikistan and Samarkand, Bukhara areas where Tajiks are majority.
@@ShaheenJc remember reading somewhere that Bukhara and Samarkand are pretty much Uzbek speaking cities now with a progressive decline of the use of Tajik. Anything about that?
Thanks for clearing that up dude, I knew that Tajiks speak Persian and I was confused when this Tajik writer included such an issue.
It's also interesting to note that an Uzbek khanate like Bukhara had Persian as its official language.
@@diargakande6740 Not true actually. Tajiks are still majority there, they speak Tajiki. That's where I come from.
The last Monarch of Mongols ever, until now. And his Y chromosome is Genghis-Khan's not Timur's.
Although this guy is probably Genghis Khan's descendant (like most people in that region, to be honest), there is no way to identify his lineage on his Y chromosome...
Sure, Genghis Khan is probably his ancestors, but so are millions of other random guys, who also had a genetic code and who also transmitted it to their descent.
Why does no one know about the Kumal Khanate!? For real it lasted until 1930!
@@williamkarbala5718 Please consider that most Americans don't know modern Tajikistan is even a place. We have little reason to know about that part of the world besides simple curiosity. At best, if you show people it on a map where Kumal was they'd just say it's China. Though, to be blunt, the communist party has done it's fair share of saying what currently is China has always been China and if you say otherwise you're hurting the feelies of all Chinese; and maybe the other ethnicities who exist on Han ancestral territory too.........

l really enjoy vids like this from you
I knew the photo but not the story… it’s fascinating! Thank you for this insight!
Been to Bukhara many times and I'm absolutely thrilled to see that corner of the world getting some time on such a good history channel.
Thanks for the information of Bukhara recently just obtained a flag pole topper from the Bukhara SSR though finding information was hard 🤝
I remember discovering Prokudin-Gorsky's photos for myself back in high school with the old StumbleUpon button. My mind was blown. To see photos of that era in colour was surreal. It's easy to forget that people lived real lives prior to mainstream colour photography. The black and white images feel so distant in a way. Seeing turn-of-the-century Russia in colour was truly eye opening.
Wasn't this guy that last ruler of Genghis Khan's lineage?
Yes
All rulers on earth are probably of Genghis Khan lineage, to be fair. Just llike you and me. But yeah, he was the last to know all steps on his branch of the tree.
@@alioshax7797 No they are not lmao.

I that can make you feel better, you're also the descendant of the Roman Emperors (the ones who had childrens), Charlemagne and the Chinese Emperors.
@@alioshax7797 You make no sense, the Mongols mainly killed their way through invasions not rape. And most of those descendants are located in Northern China and Central Asia where they ruled the most, not all over the world like your implying.

This guy was also the last of the rulers in the Khan family.
Yes, but the word "Khan" is a title, not a family name. Not all Khans were descendants of Genghais khan, but he was.
@@musofir2204 Borjigid Clan, was it not?
@@Garangus Yes, Genghis Khan was a member of this clan
No he wasn't, Google Kumal Khanate.
@@williamkarbala5718 The Kumul Khanate was a semi-autonomous Vassel state region in modern day Xinjiang, China. The Emirate of Bukahara was a Procterate state. While the Kumul Khanate outlasted the Emirate of Bukhara by 10 years, Emir Muhammad Alim Khan lived 10 more years then the last rule of the Kumul Khanate, Nasir. So then the Emir of Bukhara was the last descendant of Genghis Khan to rule and live.

I own and am restoring a tricolor camera that takes color photographs, my model is a way more advanced type than Gorsky (who used a sliding back and filters on a regular camera), My Devin Tricolor 5x7 has internal mirrors that make it a one-shot tricolor camera. It is an extremely rare camera, they were essentially handmade in the 1930's, worth thousands probably. (I posted the first pic of it on the internet lol) Its a 20lb cast iron behemoth, that takes 3 glass plates PER photo.

In addition, he run away to Afghanistan after Russian Empire take over the Khanate. He lived rest of his life selling Karakul( Persian lamb) lather and died in 1944 ( age of 64) in Kabul. Some writings say he became blind during last years of his life.

Interestingly one of his sons renounced his claim to Bukhara throne and fought as Soviet officer in Red Army in World War 2
But the Persian language is the same as the tajik language, I think you got something wrong there. You probably meant uzbek

These lesser known and long forgotten figures of history are always so interesting, and make me hopeful that the "Second Death" when "your name is Last Spoken" isn't something I have to worry about as long as some guy a few hundred years in the future makes a video about me. Please do more, like maybe on counts or dukes to old kingdoms or such.
Bukhara is located just north of the initial homeland of the proto-Bulgarians. The names are still relatively similar. Proto-Bulgarians left and migrated in the Caucasus and on the north shore of the Black sea somewhere between the 1st and 2nd century. Did the locals in Bukhara preferred and used this name for just as long too?
🤣🤣🤣 ignore this comment people. That’s a nonsense nationalistic claim.
Bulgarians migrated from the Volga which is nowhere near Bukhara.

There are always some confusing claims about the Khan in his name. Some claim he's the last ruling descendent of Genghis Khan, but I can't find anything to back this up. I think it's probably dependent on how strictly you define 'descendent of Genghis Khan' (since a lot of Asians descent from him...). Did you come across something interesting regarding this?
No he was the direct descendent from the Gengis Khan's eldest son Jebe but that is uncertain because she was kidnapped and raped before being reunited with Gengis khan but he accepted him as his son.
