Background: | Russia conquered Uzbekistan in the late 19th century. Stiff resistance to the Red Army after World War I was eventually suppressed and a socialist republic set up in 1924. During the Soviet era , intensive production of "white gold" (cotton) and grain led to overuse of agrochemicals and the depletion of water supplies , which have left the land poisoned and the Aral Sea and certain rivers half dry. Independent since 1991 , the country seeks to gradually lessen its dependence on agriculture while developing its mineral and petroleum reserves. Current concerns include terrorism by Islamic militants , economic stagnation , and the curtailment of human rights and democratization. |
