Khiba Khan

Japanese: ヒバ･ハーン国 - ヒバハーンこく

An Uzbek state with its capital in Khiva (originally Urgench) on the lower Amu Darya in Central Asia, and its territory covering the Khwarezm region and its surrounding areas. 1512-1920. The Khan's power was weak and there were constant internal conflicts, so real power came to be held by the Kungrat tribe. The state also suffered from invasions by nomads such as the Bukhara Khanate, Iran, and Turkmen, and its industry and culture were sluggish. In this environment, Abū al-Ghāzī Bahādur Khān (reigned 1643-63) was also famous as a historian, having written historical works such as The Genealogy of the Turks.

中央アジアのアム･ダリヤ下流のヒバKhivaを首都(はじめはウルゲンチ)に，ホラズム地方とその周辺部を版図としたウズベク族の国家。1512‐1920年。ハーン権力が弱くて内紛が絶えず，実権はクングラット族が握っていった。また，ブハラ･ハーン国，イラン，トルクメン等遊牧民の侵入に苦しみ，産業･文化も低調だった。こうしたなかで，アブー･アルガージー･バハードゥル･ハーンAbū al‐Ghāzī Bahādur Khān(在位1643‐63)は，《トルコ族の系譜》などの史書を著した歴史家としても名高い。
