Uzbekistan
Capital: Tashkent

Tashkent is the capital and the largest city in Uzbekistan.




The U.S. had forces operating at the Karshi-Khanabad airfield sometime after September 11, 2001. After the Andijan massacre and the U.S. reaction to the massacre, Uzbekistan asked the U.S. forces to leave the country. The last U.S. forces in Uzbekistan left in 2005.

Tashkent was headquarters of the former Soviet Unions Turkestan Military District. Uzbekistan also inherited a military academy from the former Soviet Union. Uzbekistan also inherited many weapons and military units from the former Soviet forces stationed in Uzbekistan.
