Kyrgyzstan, officially the Kyrgyz Republic, is a
landlocked country in Central Asia, lying in the Tian Shan and Pamir Mountain
ranges. Bishkek is the capital and largest city of the country.
Following
the collapse of the Soviet Union; on 31 August, 1991, an extraordinary
session of the Supreme Soviet of the Republic of Kyrgyzstan adopted a
resolution on the "Declaration on State Independence of the Republic of
Kyrgyzstan". This meant the Kyrgyz Republic was declared a sovereign
state, with the country gaining independent statehood for the first time
in history.
