Kumul Khanate

Kumul Khanate was a state in Tarim basin and Dzungaria (Central and North Asia) that lasted from 1696 to 1930 CE, about 234 years. The timeline colours it by the language of its rulers: Turkic (Gokturk, Uyghur, Seljuk, Ottoman, Kazakh, Tatar).

A semi-autonomous Turco-Mongol khanate at Hami, whose khans descended from the Chagatai line. Its ruler became a Qing vassal in 1696, and it survived under the Republic of China until Xinjiang's governor Jin Shuren abolished it after Khan Maqsud Shah died in 1930.
