Kazakhstan, the largest landlocked country in the world, is a place of stunning contrasts and vast landscapes. Nestled in the heart of Central Asia, it is a nation steeped in rich history, diverse cultures, and breathtaking natural beauty. Stretching from the Caspian Sea in the west to the Altai Mountains in the east, Kazakhstan's terrain varies from arid steppes and deserts to majestic mountains and lush green valleys. This geographical diversity has shaped not only the environment but also the lifestyle and traditions of its people. The country gained independence from the Soviet Union in 1991, marking a significant milestone in its journey towards national identity and cultural renaissance. Today, Kazakhstan is known for its efforts to blend its rich heritage with modernity, exemplifying a unique fusion of traditional and contemporary influences. The capital city, Nur-Sultan, formerly known as Astana, stands as a symbol of this transformation, showcasing modern architecture and urban planning that contrasts with the vast, open landscapes that dominate the country. Kazakhstan's population is a tapestry of ethnicities, with Kazakhs making up the majority, alongside Russians, Uzbeks, Ukrainians, and many others. This multicultural backdrop enriches the nation's cultural landscape, evident in its festivals, cuisine, and artistic expressions. The hospitality of the Kazakh people is renowned, welcoming visitors with open arms and sharing their customs and traditions. As you embark on a journey through this remarkable country, you will discover not only the beauty of its natural wonders but also the warmth and resilience of its people. From the bustling cities to the serene countryside, Kazakhstan offers an array of experiences that cater to every traveler's desire, making it a hidden gem waiting to be explored.

Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Uzbekistan became free of the Soviet Union in 1991. But though they are new to modern statehood, this is a region rich in ancient history, culture, and landscapes unlike anywhere else in the world. Traveling alone, Erika Fatland is a true adventurer in every sense. In Sovietistan, she takes the reader on a compassionate and insightful journey to explore how their Soviet heritage has influenced these countries, with governments experimenting with both democracy and dictatorships. In Kyrgyzstani villages, she meets victims of the tradition of bride snatching; she visits the huge and desolate nuclear testing ground "Polygon" in Kazakhstan; she meets shrimp gatherers on the banks of the dried out Aral Sea; she travels incognito through Turkmenistan, as it is closed to journalists, and she meets German Mennonites that found paradise on the Kyrgyzstani plains 200 years ago. We learn how ancient customs clash with gas production and witness the underlying conflicts in new countries building their futures in nationalist colors. Once the frontier of the Soviet Union, life follows another pace of time. Amidst the treasures of Samarkand and the brutalist Soviet architecture, Sovietistan is a rare and unforgettable travelogue.
