Organization Of Zarafshon District And Implementation Of Initial Military-Administrative Measures In Its Territory

This article analyzes the formation of the Zarafshan district and its initial administrative system in the territories taken from the Bukhara Emirate as a result of the military campaigns of the Russian Empire in 1868. The study covers the principles of the district's "military-people's administration", the segregated urban planning policy of "Russian Samarkand", and issues of hydro-strategic control in the region based on primary sources and archival documents. In particular, the mechanisms of maintaining the Bukhara Emirate in an economically and politically subordinate state ("hydraulic hegemony") by establishing control over the upper reaches of the Zarafshan River are scientifically substantiated. The legal status of the district and its evolutionary processes up to its transformation into the Samarkand region in 1887 are also studied.
