On Oq (English)

In 583, the Western Turks became independent and were called the Western Turks, which later reached their zenith under Shaki Khan and Tong Yabgu Khan. The Western Turks were also called simply "Ten clans," "Ten arrows," or "On Oq," and were said to have been divided into two groups: Ili and the northern foothills of the Tianshan Mountains, and the western part of the Tianshan Mountains. Meanwhile, the Eastern Turk Ishbara Khan (reigned 581-587) called himself a minister of the Sui dynasty, and the Tiele tribes briefly rose to power in Mongolia and Dzungaria.
