The Languages of Tajikistan in Perspective by Iraj Bashiri Geography of Tajikistan Tajikistan stretches from the west to the east between Uzbekistan and China. In the north it includes the western part of the Ferghana valley. This mostly Uzbek-speaking area, centered on the city of Khujand, was augmented in 1929; it provides the Tajiks access to the Syr Darya. The Turan lowlands are to the south of Ferghana. Irrigated by the Panj, Vakhsh, and the Kafarnihan, the lowlands are the heart of southern Tajikistan's present-day urban culture as well as the fulcrum of its government, industry, and commerce. To the east of the lowlands are the Pamirs, the Badakhshan, and the Hindu Kush mountains. Three Fateful Events Three major events have shaped the linguistic and cultural map of Tajikistan. The Battle of Talas fought between the Muslim forces and the Chinese on the Talas river, in present-day Kyrgyzstan, in 751 AD, a treaty signed by the Russian Emperor and the British Crown in 1873, concluding the well-know "Great Game," and the 1989 legislation that made Tajiki the official language of the republic. In ancient times, the territory of present-day Central Asia was inhabited by Indo-European tribes. Primarily Iranian-speaking, these tribes occupied not only the Samarqand and Panjekent regions but also the areas to the east as far as Turfan and Loulan (Grousset, 1970). In subsequent centuries, Arab, Turkish, and Mongol invaders redefined the socio-political and economic dynamics of Central Asia and redesigned its religious, ethnic, and linguistic map. Even though the Muslims' progress in the east was checked by the Chinese, the Arab aristocracy continued to rule the area until the tenth century. In the process of settling down, the Arabs replaced the Zoroastrian faith with Islam and the Sughdian language with Arabic.

A peace agreement among rival factions was signed in 1997, and implementation reportedly completed by late 1999. Part of the agreement required the legalization of opposition political parties prior to the 1999 elections, which occurred, but such parties have made little progress in successful participation in government. Random criminal and political violence in the country remains a complication impairing Tajikistan's ability to engage internationally.
