Will Germany restore the Khan and Emir of Khiva and Bukhara, respectively, after they win against Russia in the rework?

On the one hand, both are easy puppets. The Khivan Khan, Sayid Abdullah, was installed by a radical traditionalist as a puppet and was just that, while the Bukharan Emir after Mohammed Alim Khan(who OTL died in 1944) was, from what I understand, mentally disabled, so he'd require either his more abled brother as regent, or alternatively a weak local who will be pro-German. Of course, in the Bukharan Emirs case his brother may not be the most loyal.

On the other hand, both were, from what I understand, not popular monarchies, which even constitutionalization and memories of Savinkov's tyranny possibly wouldn't solve, so it may just be easier to install local ethnicity-based republics ruled by collaborators, or alternatively a big puppet state over all central asia, rather than install people who very well could get overthrown.

Edit: So, turns out, the Emir's eldest son wasn't unstable and actually quite cultured, its just that his leg was short and the Russian wikipedia pages translation called him disabled. In that case, double trouble.

Qing and Bukhara, are they really bad?

There are only two formables that force you out of horde government: Bukhara and Qing. People says that Bukhara sucks, but is it?

First, you have understand horde mechanic: extra shock on plains and less shock on others, infinite CB, raze mechanic, horde unity, and only have tribe estate. Early game, these are great. There should be no circumstances anyone wants to switch. But mid to late, after you horde enough to snowball (pun intended), your problem stops to be military but administration. And also, horde unit falls off a cliff mid game with increasing irrelevance of cavalry and weaker pips. Late game you will stuck with around 100 extra gov cap with 1 estate and another 100 from reform. Meanwhile, as a monarchy, you will have at least 300 extra gov cap as Qing and 400 as Bukhara (plus dhimni) and another 250 from gov reform. Factor in extra 25% from admin and you will get only 250 as horde instead of at least 625. Horde unity gives discipline, which is good, but compared to legitimacy gives more while also gradually increases, it does not seem so good anymore. CB, you can use deus vult from religious to solve 85% of CB problems and 10% more with mission tree. The only downside in mid to late game as non horde is not able to raze. But you can have better eco with long term revenue instead of living on bank of China or something else. TLDR If you can world conquest before 1600, go for it. If not, maybe consider switching out of horde into monarchy.

Bukhara (Hard)

How did you clear this difficult scenario on Hard? Even if I maxed my population, paid the tributes and reached imperial with every single tech researched, I still got run over by the green's nasty army. They had too many siege weapons that I cannot handle, and my own siege units are sniped by mangudai. My forward camps became rubble in a short nick of time.

It's maddening. How did you launch a more efficient attack on the Huns?

What was the geopolitical status of early Soviet-adjacent republics like Bukhara, Khorezm, Turkmen, and Uzbek?

I created the territorial evolution articles on Wikipedia (best work is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Territorial_evolution_of_the_United_States ) and I've been working on one for the Soviet Union. I've done a ton of preliminary work but I have a few questions that my own research hasn't helped too much yet.

First, the nature of a union republic. What I do know is:

  • 30 December 1922: The Soviet Union is formed by, among others, the Russian SFSR, which either includes or surrounds the Bukharan and Khorezm PSRs.
  • 20 October 1923: The Bukharan PSR becomes socialist and is redesignated the Bukharan SSR.
  • 19 September 1924: The Khorezm PSR become socialist and is redesignated the Khorezm SSR.
  • 27 October 1924: The Bukharan and Khorezm SSRs are dissolved/reorganized into the the Turkmen and Uzbek SSRs.
  • 13 May 1925: The Turkmen and Uzbek SSRs become union republics.

So, my questions are:

  • Were Bukhara and Khorezm actually part of the Soviet Union? Or were they technically independent, like Tuva? Or would they perhaps be considered territories, a la Kansas Territory in the U.S., considered part of the country but not fully part of the political structure?
  • Likewise, what about the Turkmen and Uzbek SSRs between their formation and being admitted to the union?

The info I have on that last bit comes from http://www.libussr.ru/doc_ussr/ussr_2469.htm which, when run through Google Translate, reads " The 3rd Congress of Soviets of the USSR welcomes with satisfaction the free expression of the will of the peoples of the Turkmen and Uzbek Socialist Soviet Republics on the entry into the USSR of the Turkmen and Uzbek Socialist Soviet Republics. " So there was definitely a national status change, but I'm trying to figure out to what degree.

So the tl;dr of this is, if you want it distilled: Between 27 October 1924 and 13 May 1925, what was the geopolitical status of the Turkmen and Uzbek SSRs, with relation to the Soviet Union?

What should I expect traveling to Samarkand and Bukhara as an Iranian?

I'm really interested in the history of the region and the fact that they speak Persian. I see Samarkand and Bukhara as two historical Persian speaking cities that have been Turkified and Russianized over centuries.

My question is if I travel to those cities as an Iranian, can I survive speaking Farsi? How would people react? What should I expect in general?

Suggestion: Bukhara Rework

Ever since the February Revolution of 1917, the Emirate of Bukhara has been a nation in turmoil. Originally a Russian protectorate, after the Revolution, Emir Mohammed Alim Khan was able to assert his realm’s independence and mostly keep the status quo. Unfortunately for him and his ruling class, the October Bolshevik putsch emboldened the Yosh Buxoroliklar (Young Bukharan) movement to attempt an overthrow of the monarchy in March of 1918. With the Bolsheviks crushed, the movement was violently put down by loyalists to the Emir with aid from the White Army. However, the enemies of the Emir still lurk in the shadows, waiting for his moment of weakness. Will the Young Bukharans succeed in modernizing the backwards nation? Will the Emir be able to crush all opposition to his rule? Or could something completely different be just over the horizon…

Some potential paths…

Emirate Loyalists (Paternal Autocrats)

Despite having opposition to his reign from all sides, the Emir has solidified his dominance even further, ensuring fundamentalist Islam and tradition will always remain cornerstones of Bukharan society.

Yosh Buxoroliklar (Social Democracy)

The Young Bukharans’ dreams of a modernized Bukhara have become a reality! Now comes the hard question: push their luck and ally with other socialist nations, or try to fit in among the rest of Central Asia?

Turkish Movement (National Populism)

Turkic nationalists, tired of the squabbling of modernists and monarchists, have taken power, making their extreme form of Islam the new core of their society, and now seeks to spread their ideas to the rest of Central Asia. May Allah help us all.

(Feel free to comment with your own ideas and how this could affect other nations)

Bukhara-style Dal Makhani made easy

Bukhara-style Dal Makhani

This smokey, creamy and tangy dal is rich and goes well with almost anything. It can be eaten with naan and grilled or tandoori dishes like tandoori chicken, paneer tikka and kebabs but goes just as well with humble roti or a bowl of steamed basmati rice.

Recipe video here.

Ingredients

Dal

  • 250g or 1 cup whole urad dal (whole black lentils)
  • 50g or 1/4 cup kidney beans
  • 1 medium red onion
  • 25g ginger
  • 2 green chillies
  • 2 black cardamom
  • 2 indian bay leaves
  • 1 tsp salt

Spiced Tomato Purée

  • 500g ripe tomatoes or tomato purée/passata
  • 2 tbsp ghee or oil
  • 1/2 tsp cumin seeds
  • 1 pinch asafoetida
  • 1 tbsp ginger garlic paste
  • 1 tsp red chilli powder or sweet paprika powder
  • 1 tsp garam masala
  • 1 tsp or to taste salt

Makhani Tadka

  • 30g butter
  • 15g or 3-4 cloves garlic
  • 1 tsp fenugreek leaves
  • 1/4 tsp garam masala
  • 120ml or 1/2 cup fresh cream

Method

Dal

  1. Soak the dal and beans mixture overnight (or for at least 8 hours) in plenty of water. The lentils will double in size once soaked and will be much easier to cook. Don't skip this step.
  2. Drain the lentils from the soaking water and give them a rinse.
  3. In a pressure cooker add the soaked drained lentils to the lentils, add 1200ml of water. Then add the whole spices - black cardamom, bay leaves a teaspoon of salt. Then add the aromatics - a finely chopped onion, sliced ginger and slit green chillies.
  4. Cook the lentils till they are completely soft. This took 35 mins in the pressure cooker on medium-low heat. If cooking in a regular pot, this could take up to 4 hours at medium-low heat.

Spiced Tomato Purée

While the lentils are cooking, prepare the spiced tomato purée.

  1. If using fresh tomatoes, roughly chop them into smaller pieces and purée them in a blender till smooth. Skip if using passata or bottled tomato purée.
  2. In a heavy bottom pot, add the ghee. Once the ghee is hot add the cumin seeds and asafoetida.
  3. Once the cumin seeds splutter and have flavoured the oil, add the ginger-garlic paste and fry till the ginger and garlic no longer smell raw.
  4. Then add the spices - red chilli powder and garam masala. Roast the spices for 30 seconds to release their aromas but be careful
