The premise here is that Russia never becomes a major player in Eurasian affairs and the "Stans"-Afghanistan, Kasakhstan, Turkmenistan, etc-are able to form a tribal "Empire" of their own instead-perhaps ruled by Attila's descendents, and later the Kazakhs themselves? Could such an Empire then become a counterweight to the Ottoman Empire, thus hastening its decline?
