The new Central Asian republics seem geographically nice and neat, each named after a major ethnic group and occupying the region associated with it. But closer consideration reveals that these republics are artificial in nature, the result of both arbitrary decisions by Russians and British engaged in the Great Game and then Stalins even more ruthless interventions. This appears most starkly in Tajikistan, the weakest and poorest of the group. It is not solely the land of the Tajiks: Although they are the majority, Uzbeks constitute almost one-sixth of the population, and more Tajiks live outside the republic than inside. The countrys historical roots were obliterated when the great centers of learning were allocated to other countries and Islam was suppressed. Decades of planning, from Moscow mainly, did little to create a unified or rational economy. For 70 years of Soviet rule, Tajikistan was abjectly dependent. Thus, not surprisingly, the suddenly independent republic encountered many political, economic, and social difficulties and became enmeshed in a nasty and prolonged civil war. Now that peace has returned, the country is tentatively sorting things out and making progress, but the way ahead will probably never be easy.
