Uzbekistan has a long history under Persian rule but was also part of the Soviet Union for most of the twentieth century. This interesting juxtaposition has given the country a diverse cultural heritage, with many hidden gems to explore.
There are more people living in Uzbekistan than any other Central Asian country, with the Uzbek ethnic group forming 80% of the population. Russians, Tajiks, Karakalpaks, and Tartars form the majority of the remaining population. Almost 90% of citizens are Muslim—a proportion which has gradually increased since the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991.
Music is a very important part of Uzbek culture. It is the home of Shashmaqam, which translates as six maqams in reference to its six sections and six musical modes. The style is similar to Persian traditional music and features lyrics derived from Sufi poetry. Silk, ceramics, and cotton weaving are treasured art forms that have been passed down from ancient times, while craftsmen still use historic jewellery making techniques to cut gemstones, engrave, and enamel their pieces.
Uzbekistan has the fourth-largest gold reserves in the world, while its copper ranks tenth and its uranium twelfth. There are also significant untapped resources of oil and gas in the country. Unemployment levels are very low and over a quarter of the labour force works in agriculture, which accounts for more than 17% of GDP. Cotton is Uzbekistan’s main cash crop and the nation is one of the world’s largest producers and exporters of the material.
Uzbekistan has embarked on a radical transformation of its economy since 2017 and is still gradually transitioning to the market economy having made its currency fully convertible. The government has also liberalised the foreign exchange market, significantly reduced tax rates for businesses and individuals, and is on track to join the World Trade Organization. According to The World Bank, the government aims to “transform Uzbekistan into an industrialized, upper-middle-income country by 2030”.
