Is it possible for Persia, not Russia, to conquer and hold the region of modern Kazakhstan?
They did have some significant control over southern Turkestan for quite a while, from what i hear. Thus, perhaps subduing the kazakh turks wouldn't be out of their experience.
I envision that a continuing Timurid Dynasty after Timur himself would have a Central Asian focus, and would, thus, find incentive in expanding into the region. Is this plausible?
