In the 18th century, the Kyrgyz region today was the sphere of influence of the Junggar Mongol (northern) and the Kokand Khanate (southern).

In the 1820s, Kokand's power expanded, and the entire Kyrgyz region became part of the Kokand Khanate.

In 1854, Tsarist Russia set out to invade the Kokand Khanate and forced the Qing court to recognize the independent status of the vassals in Central Asia through various diplomatic methods.
