Bukhara, Emirate of

Years: 1785 - 1873

The Emirate of Bukhara is a Central Asian that exists from 1785 to 1920.

It occupies the land between the Amu Darya and Syr Darya rivers, known formerly as Transoxiana.

Its core territory was the land along the lower Zarafshan River, and its urban centers are the ancient cities of Samarkand and the emirate's capital, Bukhara.

It is contemporaneous with the Khanate of Khiva to the west, in Khwarezm, and the Khanate of Kokand to the east, in Fergana.

It is now within the boundaries of Uzbekistan.
