Cuman-Kipchak Confederation

The Cuman-Kipchak Confederation was a khanate populated by Cumans and Kipchaks. The state existed before the Mongol Empire, and after the fall of the Golden Horde during Varna, when the confederation comprises the territories surrounding Orenburg.
{before the Mongols TBA}
During the Great Russian War, the Golden Horde had been losing land from 1475 to '77, due to several invasions from all sides. The largest and cruellest of these invasions was the Polish-Russian invasion from the west. A Mongol offensive on the city of Moscow had failed, and with that, the Confederation regained their independence from the Mongols in June 1477.
1521 saw the outbreak of the First Steppe War. As the khan of Transoxiana had passed, the Khanate found themselves invaded from all sides. The Uzbeks had been invading Transoxiana from the north, so in early 1522, the Cuman-Kipchak Confederation declared war on the Uzbeks. In only a few months Transoxiana surrendered to the invading forces. The Uzbek territories were partitioned between Cuman-Kipchak, Chagatai, and a Kazakh rebellion. Therefore, the Uzbeks relocated into central Transoxiana.
