Profile

Kazakhstan, located in Central Asia, is the world's largest landlocked country and the ninth-largest by land area. It shares borders with Russia, China, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, and Turkmenistan. With a rich history that dates back thousands of years, Kazakhstan has been influenced by various cultures, including nomadic, Persian, Turkic, and Russian.

The country is known for its diverse landscapes, ranging from the vast steppes and deserts to the stunning mountains and lakes, including the famous Lake Balkhash and Lake Issyk-Kul. The Kazakh steppe is one of the world's last remaining expanses of untouched wilderness.

Kazakhstan gained independence from the Soviet Union in 1991 and has since undergone significant development. The capital city, Nur-Sultan (formerly Astana), and Almaty are vibrant urban centers with modern infrastructure and architectural marvels. The country's economy is largely driven by its rich natural resources, including oil, gas, and minerals.

Kazakhstan is home to various ethnic groups, with Kazakhs being the largest, followed by Russians. The official language is Kazakh, although Russian is widely spoken. The Kazakh culture is deeply rooted in traditions such as horsemanship, nomadic heritage, and hospitality.

The country is known for its space exploration efforts and is home to the Baikonur Cosmodrome, the world's first and largest space launch facility. Kazakhstan has also played a significant role in promoting regional stability and international diplomacy, hosting various peace talks and initiatives.

Tourism in Kazakhstan is growing, attracting visitors with its natural beauty, historical sites, and unique cultural experiences. The country aims to showcase its heritage through landmarks like the Mausoleum of Khoja Ahmed Yasawi, the petroglyphs of Tamgaly, and the ancient Silk Road routes that traversed its territory.

Kazakhstan is committed to sustainable development, embracing renewable energy sources and participating in global initiatives. It is an active member of international organizations, including the United Nations and the Commonwealth of Independent States.
