Uzbeks are an ethnic group native to Kyrgyzstan, where they are the largest minority group, [1] comprising about 15% of the population. [2] They have a long history in the region and have played a significant role in the culture and economy of Kyrgyzstan. Many Uzbeks in Kyrgyzstan live in the southern part of the country, particularly in the cities of Osh, Jalal-Abad and Özgön. [3]
