In the XV century, as a result of the Golden Horde collapse,

several states emerged,

headed by the Genghis Khan's descendants.

One of them is the state White Horde, founded by Urus Khan.

In 1428, as a result of a power struggle,

Shaybanid Abulkhair ascended to the throne.

The descendants of Urus Khan, Sultans Kerey and Zhanibek,

who did not recognize the power of Abulkhair Khan,

created the Kazakh Khanate in 1465,

becoming the first Khans of an independent state.

Their sons, Buryndyk and Kasym,

continued confrontation with Abulkhair's grandson, Mohammed Shaybani.

Dawn of the Great Steppe

and from that moment I was next to the Kasym Khan.

I still remember those times...

After Khans Kerey and Zhanibek, power passed to their sons -.

Sultans Buryndyk and Kasym.

Initially, according to the ancestors' ancient custom, Buryndyk was proclaimed Khan.

And the main commander of the Kazakh troops

was his faithful companion Kasym.

However, the longtime rival of the Sultans Buryndyk and Kasym,

the grandson of Abulkhair, Mohammed Sheibani

couldn't stand with the independence of the Alash people.

- What's that noise? - It's not good! Is it really an enemy?

Wake up!

- The Shaybanids attacked! - What did you say?

Hide the children!

- Come on, come on! - What are you doing?!

Don't touch my family!

Help! He is killed! Where is everyone?!

Hey, crone, give away gold and silver!

Come here! If you want to live, tell me where you hid it!

- Where did you hide it? - Son, hide, run outside!

Mom! Unhand me!

- Come here! - Drag her outside!

We will sell her into slavery!

- Shut your mouth! - Unhand me shameless!

May the Almighty punish you, asshole!

Keep an eye on her!

- Come here, you Shayban bastard! - It was said - stay away from these lands!

- This wintering is ours since the earliest times! - These lands belong to the Shaybanids!

Unhand me!

Back off! Father, where are you?! Back off, you asshole!

Wretch!

Father, get up! Please, don't die!

Open your eyes, please! Father!

Bastard!

Hurry!

- My bunny! Oh, my God, what should I do?! - Hurry up! Cut it down!

Back off evil! Mom, help me!

Back off! Mom!

My support is gone! You're just a kid!

Leave us! Father! Mom!

God damn you!

Alpamys! Ride to Orazbay, say that we were attacked by Shaybanids!

Tell that they killed everyone!

What should I do now?!

Step aside! Away! Make way! Sultan Sherali is coming!

Piss off!

Nunky, share the loot, please!! And I'll give you some water! Nunky!

- God bless us! Who is it? - Whoever it is, be silent, I hope there is no strife.

Honorable Signor Mohammed!

My men attacked and completely robbed the wintering of Bai Oraz.

My men have captured rich loot...

So, has this already become a reason for pride?

And according to the traditions, I have come personally to hand you the best share.

Signor!

My people also made a good profit by attacking from Ak-Kurgan.

This is the wintering of the wealthy man from Arkinsk, with countless herds of horses,

Sultan Alibek.

Why don't I hear from your pompous mouths,

that you want to vent your wrath on the Kazakh Horde, and totally smash them?!

That's right.

If we liquidate the Buryndyk

and destroy his throne, all the descendants of Jochi will gather

under the gonfanon of Shayban.

Why don't you think about it?

I will not calm down until I return all the lands of Desht-i-Kipchak,

that belonged to my grandfather, Abulkhair Khan.

It's gonna be just like I said!

- That's right! - The Signor is right!

- That's right! Let it be! - We are always next to you.

The horses ride too hard, let them cool down!

- Salute! - Welcome, Usen.

Urgent news from Orazbai for Sultan Kasim.

I'll deliver it myself. Go ahead.

Peace be upon you, Khan!

Peace on you.

How are you, Kasym?

I am good!

Khan!

The Sheibanid warriors robbed the wintering of Sultan Alibek and Bai Oraz.

Sit down.

Recently, our relations

with Shaybanids have worsened.

If we can't take care of our people,

protect them from robbery, what are we needed for?

I'm sure Mohammed is waiting for our revenge

and even, probably preparing for a fight.

But we need to persuade Signor Abdikarim and

unite with the Mangyts.

I was informed that.

Mohammed also wants to get him as an ally.

Therefore, we need to get ahead of him

and persuade the Mangits to be on our side!

I have heard that Signor Abdikarim moved across the Emba River.

And it isn't unjustified.

He's obviously avoiding us and moved away on purpose.

And that's why I sent a staffette to him

and told him that you will personally come to the negotiations.

Prepare for the road.

It is better to go in a small detachment, in order not to attract too much attention.

Your wish is my command!

Signor Abdikarim was faithful to your father.

But he did not want Buryndyk to become a Khan. Remember that.

And he is very stubborn and self-willed.

Who knows, maybe he will give in.

It's not for nothing that the Khan entrusted this task to me.

At any cost, we need to get ahead of Mohammed Shaybani.

My Sultan,

the fact that we are riding in a small detachment bothers me.

The staffette returned with a message about the meeting place.

It will take, approximately, seven days.

We should be on guard, you never know what...

Why are you riding in small detachment?

This is the Khan's command.

Well, the Khan's commands are not discussed.

Let's pray.

May God protect you and make your way easier,

may the luck accompany you in your affairs!

Come back safe and sound!

God, let me to do the rightful cause.

Give the unity to my people!

May peace and quiet come to our lands!

Let my people cheer up!

Amen!

Guys, hurry up! The way is long!

Look, Sultan Kasym is coming!

- Welcome, my Sultan!! - Peace be upon you, Sultan Kasym!

- Welcome! - Peace to you, honoured!

- I am glad to see you! - Peace be upon you, Sultan Kasym! Welcome!

Peace to you! Bless you!

Come on in!

Welcome!

A batyr must have a sharp hearing! Be a true hero, take it, eat it!

Have you successfully overwintered?

Are the cattle safe? Have there been robber attacks?

Come on, Sultan Kasym, everything is quiet on our lands.

God protects us from robbers.

Eat, please.

May God reward your descendants with blessings, in both worlds.

We'll be on our way at dawn.

- May God bless your path! - Amen!

Welcome.

- Welcome! - How are you doing?!

- Peace be upon you! Welcome! - Peace to you, too!

Prepare the koumiss of a young mare!

- Tie up the horses, let them cool down. - Take out the meat!

- Peace be upon you! - Accompany the warriors to the yurts!

Greetings, come in!

For a long time we have been honoring our neighborly and kindred relations.

The entire Mangyt people

used to respect and honor your father, Khan Janibek, very much.

Khan Janibek had high hopes for you.

Here is my support and faithful assistant - Signor Akbar.

Following your father's example, I raised him as my own son.

Whatever you say...

Your father distinguished you from the rest of his sons.

- And you... - That's enough, Signor Abdikarim.

People say: "As long as those who knew your father are alive, the memory of him is alive."

Of course, I am grateful to your people that they still remember my father,

but I did not come here to talk about his honorable memory.

- Let's return to our issue. - Of course,

of course, Sultan Kasym!

I just wanted to say

that as long as we remember our ancestors, all things are going uphill.

And as for Buryndyk Khan's letter -

don't rush me.

After all, I need to think about everything well

and discuss it with the people.

And how long will it take?

Do you want to escape by just spreading your hands?!

It's not quiet in the steppe nowadays.

All the Mangyt dignity met with Mohammed Shaybani.

They bowed before him and asked to take the entire Mangyt people

under his wing and become their Khan.

I can't cope with them, I'm powerless here.

Therefore, don't judge too severely, Sultan.

Are you saying there is neither strength nor will?

From such an answer, Khan Buryndyk will be furious!

Why are you standing up here?!

Prepare a supply of food for them for the road and see them off quickly.

Will be done!

Kasym is determined.

You know what to do, Akbar...

My sultan, Abdikarim, was not stingy,

he filled our bags with food so much that we can feast all six days on the way to home.

It's time to eat, everything is ready.

I'm not hungry.

Put out watchers and make sure that the bonfires burn until morning.

Will be done!

Alert! The enemy! Mangyts!

Squad! Get up! We've been attacked!

- Asan, is the squad in order? - I'm not sure!

Where are the watchers? Decapitate everyone!

Sultan, it's not their fault, so then punish me too!

It seems that the Mangyts have poisoned our food and drink.

I also have a haze.

My Sultan, Asan! Many of the attackers have already escaped!

Those who remain, help the wounded.

Bury the dead!

We need to move forward soon!

Abdikarim's act is slap in the face!

He humiliated not only me, but our entire Khanate!

That's enough! Let's move out immediately! Let's destroy the Mangyts!

Change your mind, Khan. Let's discuss it!

- Now is not the time to fight with Mangyts! - That's enough! Now don't interfere!

Call the Khan's council!

In the confrontation, both the strong and the sneaky win.

Where you can't take it by force, there is foresight to help!

The same Mangyts wanted to kill me,

but they are only a tool in the hands of the Shaybanids,

and the whole thing is in the evil plans of Mohammed.

Neither a gesture, nor a look should betray to the enemy what is on your mind.

You'd better listen to the Buryndyk.

Your father Zhanibek never disputed the words of Kerey Khan. Be wiser.

Kerey and Janibek were brothers not only in blood, but also in spirit.

They were united by a common goal.

For the sake of the people, they never allowed themselves to discrepancy.

Their strength was in unity.

God bless our rightful cause and lead us to the goal!

Save my people from conflicts, light up our path!

Almighty God, help us! Amen!

Come with me.

- Peace be upon you, Sultan Kerey. - Peace be with you, son.

I see you took Kasym with you.

People say: "A good example, better than a hundred words..."

One son should become the support of the father,

the second one should become the support of the people!

That is true, a dad is the anchor upon which has children stand.

Peace be upon you!

Surely the elders remember how two decades ago the plague came from Urgench,

destroying most of the settlements along the Syr Darya river,

mowing down people like dry grass.

In that case, we survived by moving to the north, deep into the country.

Yes, we remember those times.

Now, once again, we are going through hard times.

If that plague was the wrath of God,

at this time, we were threatened by a human like you and me.

This is turmoil of Khan Abulkhair!

- Yes, he made us suffer... - It disunites the people!

We will no longer stand for the tyranny of despot Khan!

- We will not stand for it!! - He passed all boundaries.

You are right, Sultan Kerey!

The patience of the ordinary people is off!

Now it is time to revive the White Horde,

which was founded by our ancestor Urus Khan,

and remain power over Desht-i-Kipchak!

- That's right. - You're telling the truth.

First of all, we will move neighboring Moghulistan, we need to make a plan.

The Khan of Mogulistan Bahadur Yesen Buga himself

will meet our nomad settlement.

We've been waiting for this, Sultan Kerey!

- Sultan Kerey is right. - There is no other way out.

All the tribes under your control will move away. Everyone.

- Lead the nomad yourself, Sultan Kerey, we are behind you. - May God support our initiative!

My sunshine!

How have you been?

How are you, my dear!

How worried I was!

Thank God, everything is right.

I have you heard that Buryndyk is gathering the Khan's council.

Is it war again planning?

People say "The Khan has the mind of forty people", but he also needs support.

The Khan's council will help him to make the right decision.

Son, when will peace time finally come on our land?

I've already looked for a bride for you.

Her name is Aisha, she is the daughter of Sultan Zhantemir.

Moon-faced beauty Aisha!

She will give you healthy sons,

beautiful daughters and increase your kin.

Let's talk about it later, it's not a good time now.

Soon you will enfold your sons,

my brothers and be happy to meet them.

My dear!

My sultan, did you tell your mother about Altynbike?

What does Jahan Begym say?

She has already looked for another bride for me.

Yes, I heard that this is the daughter of Sultan Zhantemir.

It is a benefit for you to marry the daughter of Chingisid.

Stop talking!

Let's go to Altynbika! Does she know that we came?

Disobeying your order means risking by my only head!

Soon we will move, by order of the Khan.

Again I won't see you for a long time.

I will pray for you, my Sultan!

May God keep you safe and sound!

Amen.

Without you, there is no meaning or joy in my life,

do not forget about it.

I'll be looking forward to seeing you.

The amulet of my soul, Altynbike!

I live by the prayers of your heart!

Altynbeke! It's time to go back.

They've been waiting for me…

Grandpa, what happened next?

Did Sultan Kasym give a fitting rebuff to the Mangyts?

Finding out that the Mangyts had become a weapon in the hands of the Shaybanids,

Buryndyk called a Khan's council.

All sultans gathered for this council - brothers of Kasym and other noble biys and honorable batyrs.

They were the mainstay of the Khan and all the common people.

Cities in the southern part of the Kazakh Khanate were under their authority…

- That's right! It's time to punish the Mangyts! - Betrayal is a mortal sin!

- That is true! - Let the Mangyts pay the price in blood!

We will act as a single force and strike unexpectedly!

That is right!

The attack of Abdikarim is not the will of Mangyt's ordinary people.

They themselves are not on friendly relations with each other!

So let's go and punish this Abdikarim,

let it be a lesson for others!

- That's right, Toktar! - I agree!

- Why are you making a noise?! - We are listening to you, Zhirenshe!

Let Kasym finish.

There is a grain of truth in his words.

By getting involved in a war with the Mangyts,

we leave our southern borders unprotected.

In the midst of severe frosts, Shaybani's warriors ruthlessly robbed peaceful people,

wintering on the banks of the Syr Darya.

We lost a lot those days.

Yes, capturing our grasslands,

they force us to migrate further and further,

to the most deserted corners of the hungry steppe.

Why are the Shaybanids inciting us up against the Mangyts?

Do you understand now?

Yes, this is Shaybani's insidious plan!

So, it is necessary to defeat Sheibani!

Yes, Mahmoud is right, he says it right!

- It is! - Fairly!

Since the Shaybanids captured Syganak,

all the cities along the Syr Darya are in their hands.

- You're right! - That's right!

- It's disparaging! - It's better to die than to endure this shame!

That's right, Kasym!

We have finally found out Shaybani's insidious plan.

In this case,

our goal will be Syganak!

- That's what I exactly wanted to say! - That's right!

Let's return back the capital of our ancestors once and forever.

- That's right! - This is the desire of the whole people!

It's easy for us to take Syganak.

We'll take them by surprise, like thunder from a clear sky!

Of course, it will not be difficult to recapture Syganak.

After all, there are many Kazakhs in the city and surrounding areas.

Now Syganak is ruled by inexperienced youngster.

And he has almost no troops.

With God's permission, we can easily cope with them.

They will finally pay for my face.

What a handsome guy I was…

And now the girls are avoiding me,

as if they saw a monster!

Really...

How not to become an object of derision,

fighting with an inexperienced boy?!

It is better to think about it, Khan.

There's nothing to think about!

Let's move to Syganak!

It makes no sense to gather all the troops,

three thousand soldiers are more than enough.

Kasym, you will lead the army yourself.

Right!

I appoint Sultan Mahmud as the governor of Syganak from today.

Yes, my lord!

The discussion is over!

I can entrust this matter only to you.

Whatever happens, you have to hand it in personally.

Don't worry!

Everything is in the hands of God!

Free sons of the boundless steppe!

God is my witness, He knows the whole world that this vast land,

which is difficult to cross both a strong bird and a fleet-footed horse,

rightfully belongs to us, to the Kazakhs, under the banner of Alash!

If even a piece of this land, sprinkled with the blood of our ancestors

- and the tears of our mothers, gets to the enemy. - this is a shameful stamp for all our people!

The city of Syganak, is a symbol of our unity,

where the noble Urus Khan rests, now in the hands of the enemy!

So let's go to Syganak and wash our swords with enemy's blood!

Come back with a victory and place the banner of Alash on the walls of Syganak!

We ask for your blessing!

- Amen! - Amen!

In the name of God, the compassionate the merciful.

May God light up your path!

May the God grant the victory to people of Alash!

Amen!

On the horses!

- Good luck! - Have a bright road!

Hit your enemies like a lightning!

- May God protect you from enemy arrows! - Let sudden death avoid you!

- May the God save you from destruction! - Come back safe and sound!

Let's go!

May God protect you from enemy arrows!

Heaven bless you!

Crush the cursed Shaybanids!

And may God let you to celebrate the victory in Syganak!

Let's go!

- Fair wind! - Hack with swords, strike with spears.

Hit your enemies like lightning!

We will discuss it and decide at the council.

I will pass that on.

Listen up, everyone! The enemy is coming!

Quickly enter the fortress!

Closing the gates! Don't leave women and children!

Well, elder,

I have to make a decision… What do you think?

Signor!

Since the honorable Mohammed has appointed us as your advisers,

let me express my thoughts to you!

Signor!

I want to remind you that the Great Hazret Mohammed is now on a long trip.

Of course, the governors of all the cities subordinate to the Shaybanids

also sent their troops to the southern campaign

and we cannot expect any help from them!

Farkhad is right!!

Hurry up if you don't want to stay under the hooves of the enemy!

Move! Why are you stuck?

Cowardly soul! Instead of fighting against the Kazakhs

and saving Syganak, listen to what he says!

- Sherali! - What are you talking about?

There was not a single coward in my family!

You want to shed innocent blood!

We will hold the city until help arrives!

The enemy is close! Hurry up!

Mom?! Mom!

Khamid, come here.

- Have you seen my mom? - I didn't see her! Don't touch. Come with me!

- We will not give up the city! - What will you do?

The enemy army is already at the gate! And you're here…

Quiet! Stay calm…

It is not in our rules to give to the enemy what belongs to us!

- We will hold the city until help arrives! - That's enough, Sherali!

Stop!

How many supplies do we have?

Only until the full moon, my lord!

And here is the sacred Syganak!

Look, what a magnificent fortress!

And where is the enemy? With whom are we going to cross swords?

It is so quite!

With a help of God we will win!

People say for a reason: "A bold campaign will bring good luck"!

Peace be upon you, Sultans.

- Peace to you too!! - Sultan Kasym,

the governor of the city has sent you a message.

Please take it!

Sultan Mahmud,

the new governor of Syganak is you.

- What do I hear! - May God protect you!

The God, the Great and the Almighty!

We won without even taking our swords out of their scabbards!

Victory! Syganak is ours! Alash!

- Alash! - Victory!

- Peace be upon you! - Peace to you, too!

Peace to you!

Despite your young age, you acted wisely!

We are satisfied with you!

Even now you can leave the city easily, I allow you...

You...

are free!

I thank you for your generosity, Sultan!

This is all...

thanks to the letter of Sultan Kasym,

in which he promised not to shed innocent blood.

I support Sultan Mahmud.

You…

Really showed wisdom,

saving the lives of people, and the city,

with a common sanctuary for us: the tomb of our noble ancestor Urus Khan!

Now let him pass!

- Honor to you Kasym Sultan. - May God bless you!

Let the capturing of Syganak be known throughout the whole steppe!

How dare you give away Syganak without a fight?

How did allow the arbitrariness of the boys?

Hazret, obeying your order,

we hastened to provide you with all the troops that we had.

Who even can imagine that Buryndyk would suddenly attack Syganak?

We expected that the Mangyts would involve him into the war!

I repeated at every military council

that it is wrong to leave a strong enemy in the rear, I called for strengthening.

I was also against the surrender of the city.

Enough!

Your words are different from your deeds.

You had to fight till the last breath and defend the city!

I hasten to announce great joy! It's time to offer prayers to God!

Shaybani is the implacable enemy was defeated! Even we didn't take off our swords!

May the God bless you.

The descendant of the Great Khan is Kasym, The honorable Sultan - the son of Zhanibek!

A brave batyr, a noble hero.

Congratulations!

May the joy of victory last for a long time!

I am satisfied!

He will always stand up for the people like a mountain!

Well done!

Kasym's troops are marching with victory! They lead us to new achievements!

We sing to the glory of Sultan Kasym - We praise the achievement of the brave!

I am pleased that you took Syganak without a fight! Let the enemies always flutter

when they see the Kazakh army, hearing how the earth shakes under the hooves of our many thousands horses!

Look what I have prepared for Begimbai!

I'm going to marry the beautiful Altynbike.

Who knew that Begimbai had such a beautiful daughter?!

When I saw her during the migration, I confess, I almost fell off my horse!

You will be the most honored guest at my wedding.

I am speechless.

A perfect gift!

Let it serve for the good...

Are you upset? Is something wrong?

Dear Altynbike!

You were my blooming spring.

I dreamed about your smile, when I just close my eyes...

my heart is tearing...

The cold of fate has not spared the gentle growths of our love.

Are we not destined to be together?

Are we no longer belonging to each other?

No...

Forever!

We are saying goodbye to our spring…

And summer forever!

How cruel fate is!

With the spring warmness,

my hope for happiness increased!

Your happiness is chained by permafrost, Altynbike!

For the sake of peace

and the good of the whole people,

we must sacrifice our feelings.

Goodbye, Kasym…

Goodbye my blooming spring...

Goodbye, unrealized summer…

Goodbye...

Is everything good with you?

Sultan Mohammed secretly sent me a letter.

Here it is, read.

He writes that he needs to talk to you.

He wants to meet you urgently.

He will be waiting for you at the old winter place, three days away from here.

After the Khan's wedding,

you have to meet your brother, my sunshine.

Elders!

I am glad that you are gathered here on this special day!

Valiant Sultans,

noble beys and fearless batyrs,

may the God be pleased with you!

- Thank to the God! - May the celebration be everlasting!

Shared joy is a double joy! Take it, help yourself!

May the God hear your prayers!

Bring the koumiss!

Honey,

not every girl gets the honor of becoming the Khan's wife.

Step with peace into this house!

May the God allow you to find happiness there!

Look, Altynbike…

Look...

To take a good wife means not to know a sorrow.

Now, to wash the Khan's feet, and to hand over the staff is your duty.

Come on, daughter, why are you standing there?

Peace be upon you!

Peace to you too!

Welcome!

It's been a long time, Kasym!

Yes, it's true...

- How are you, are you healthy, Bahadur Karachin? - Healthy!

Welcome!

- Peace be upon you, Kasym! - Peace to you, too!

- Welcome! - Glad to see you!

By the way... Zhirenshe,

where is Kasym,

I can't see him.

You knew that I was on a long march with my army, didn't you?

Yes, I did!

Then tell me,

why did you attack a city running by a helpless boy?

Would you say you couldn't disobey Buryndyk's order?

Was it a real battle?

And how did Buryndyk reward you for that?

My Khan! I don't know where he is.

Maybe he will come soon!

You are the son of Zhanibek, who recently brought together the whole nation!

Isn't it time for you, according to the customs of your fathers, to ascend to the throne?

You are the true descendant of the throne

and the continuer of the great deeds of our ancestor Jochi.

If you ruled the lands,

I wouldn't even look in the direction of Desht-i-Kipchak.

Knowing that no one would encroach on my banner from the rear,

knowing that my brother is there, I would without a doubt go to the South

to defeat the Kyzylbashes.

Why didn't you think about it when you tried to kill me by the hands of Abdikarim?

Your sneaky plan failed,

and now you've decided to pit me against Buryndyk

and again pretend that you are innocent?!

My Khan is a Buryndyk.

We did not go to Syganak for the sake of glory,

we only returned the city that belonged to the Kazakhs since the time of the White Horde.

Can't we, brothers,

join forces and together raise the glorious banner

of my grandfather Abulkhair Khan into the blue sky?

That's enough, Sultan.

I am faithful to the way of my ancestors.

I am not going to play your dirty games!

My glorious Bahadur,

there is no blemish in your courage.

Stubbornness is your only disadvantage.

Remember,

I will return the Syganak anyway.

And then…

Don't try to resist the predestined,

it will be by the will of the God.

You may go!

Refer best regards to my aunt.

May the mercy of the God be with her!

She is the memory of my mother…

In this world, I have no one closer than Zhakhan Begim.

Kacharyn!

Let's go!

What did you say to your brother

that he ran away like a burnt man?

Since early childhood, he has such a character,

if you contradict him,

he bursts out like a torch.

Kasym, come on faster!

Don't disturb me, Mohammed, it's not asyks for you… In the game togyzkumalak it is necessary to think!

The deal is, whoever cheats, he does not play in the next game.

Your drink, Buryndyk!

You have to serve me first!

Get your hands off! Know your place!

Because - I am the future Khan!

Whoever leads the people will be the Khan!

What are you hoping for?!

Not you, but I am the future Khan!

You are not my brothers, but sworn enemies!

You will see what I can!

Here you are!

What is he doing? He's always messing up the game!

I told you he'd ruin the game.

Stop, I say!

You're my wife now, Altynbike.

Why are you so cold?

What's wrong?

Any girl would be happy to become the Khan's wife!

My Khan!

What happened?

Urgent report! May I come in?

Come in.

My Khan…

You may speak, I have no secrets from my wife.

We have found out that Sultan Kasym

met with Mohammed Shaybani!

Peace be upon you, Khan!

You weren't at the wedding.

Mohammed Shaybani asked for an urgent meeting, so I had to go.

Are you going to run at the first call of Shaybani?

Am I not your Khan?

Khan!

You know that Mohammed Shaybani is behind all the machinations,

starting with the betrayal of Abdikarim.

And now he's trying to ignite the fire of feud between us.

You should have to notify me!

I didn't want to disturb your celebration.

But you upset me... and even more than once...

You ignored my invitation,

and now you strike up a friendship with enemy.

That's what I was afraid of!

I did not want Mohammed's intrigues to separate us as enemy…

See, that these chains are not twisted into a loop around your neck!

Insidious Mohammed knows all the weaknesses of Buryndyk.

Buryndyk in his turn doesn't even want to hear about it.

There is no understanding between us.

Now even the steppe will be too small for us.

- Peace be upon you! - Peace to you too!

I greet you, Khan Buryndyk,

and you, Bahadur Sultan Kasym!

How are you?

May the mercy of God be with you,

may the glory of your good deeds grow.

How are you, Akbar, Seidakhmet!

What brought you to us: the will of God or... an evil fate?

Maybe they've come to treat us by poison again?

What a poison do you mean? It's not my fault,

it was all arranged by Abdikarim!

Then... why you are here, tell me!

The Emirs within my power are completely out of control.

I need an army to subdue them, that's why I came to you.

If you help, I will forever become your faithful governor.

As a sign of my faithfulness and obedience,

I have brought you the head of the two-faced betrayer Abdikarim.

Take it!

Here it is, my Khan!

- Kasym, I give you the right. - solve this case yourself.

Who betrays once

will betray a second time!

Have mercy!

For goodness' sake!

Seidakhmet, if you want to live,

tell your emirs,

that every betrayer, the same fate will happen!

I hear and obey, my Khan!

I hear and obey!

Why are you doing on your own?

What are you doing, Kasym?

How dare you desecrate my throne with blood?

You gave me that right yourself, Khan!

Did your ancestors ever kill in the throne room?!

Saint Syganak was our bulwark and shield,

The insidious Shaybanid captured him!

Our brave Sultan Kasym Without a fight, without blood, He drove the enemy away,

Shaybani has been covered with shame for centuries!

Well said!

Peace be upon you, my Sultan!

Peace be upon you!

- Peace to you too.. - Welcome!

Happy Nauryz holiday! Sit down, don't worry!

Saint Syganak was returned to the Kazakhs, The dreams of the Shaybanids fall to dust.

How it is said!!

For the fact that you planted feud between us, Burn, Shaybani, after death in hell!

Very well put!

Long life to you, singer!

I give everyone nine heads of cattle with a camel in addition.

- Rightful cause, my Sultan! - May God bless you.

May the God be pleased with all of us!

Sultan Kasym, Khan Buryndyk is calling you.

You are equally great in strength and wisdom, Kasym coped with the Shaybanids in a second!

Like a majestic oak, he protected people From those who threatened the Kazakhs with unhappiness.

- Peace be upon you! - Peace to you too!

Come on in, Kasym.

My guests still can't solve one question.

You've already easily managed to solve such disputes.

Try to help them here.

Sultan Kasym,

our family has lived and pastured their cattle since ancient times in the south of the Syr Darya,

three days' road from Syganak.

We regularly paid taxes to the treasury.

However this year

your brother Sultan Mahmud, the ruler of Sygnak,

illegally took away from me

a herd of selected horses and my mountain pastures.

The Council of Elders did not resolve our dispute,

and we, out of hopelessness,

decided to seek a protection in the Khan's headquarter.

Judge fairly, Sultan Kasym,

I have nothing left to pay taxes with.

Khan,

we need your order that the sultans do not have the right, without knowing you,

to invade the family lands and increase the tax established by you.

Sultan Mahmud must be punished!

He will return both cattle and land to Rakhimbai!

Moreover, he will pay a fine in the amount of half of the herd of horses tooked by him.

To him - a lesson, to others - an example!

Isn't that too tough verdict? He's your brother.

If today we manage to call all the sultans to order,

then tomorrow, all the steppe people will obey your will.

To unite the people,

beginning with the governor, everyone must obey the order of the Khan!

Are you saying,

that there is neither order nor justice in Desht-i-Kipchak?

Or do you have a doubt about the orders of Buryndyk Khan?

Not of course, my Khan!

The Khan is the people, after all!

Everyone, from khan to commoner, is equal to the authorities!

Then everyone will be happy!

This unity is our strength.

Noone can defeat us!

Rakhimbai, are you satisfied

with Sultan Kasim's decision?

Yes. May the God bless him!

My Khan!

Princess Altynbike…

My blooming spring,

My Khan!

Altynbike's breath is running out.

An incurable disease takes the life of a princess,

the child in the womb is already dead.

I tried all kinds of treatments, nothing helped.

My blooming spring,

My blooming spring,

Kasym...

Kasym...

Kasym...

Kasym...

Until now, I considered Kasym as my brother, I did not limit him in anything.

It's not my fault.

Be witness,

I am depriving Sultan Kasym of the post of commander of the Kazakh army!

My sunshine, Buryndyk!

The Khan's dignity is in his justice and generosity.

Why are you so cruel to Kasym?

Faithfully and truthfully he served you all his life!

Don't judge me, Zhakhan Begim.

It is enough to be a lion surrounded by jackals!

Kasym secretly met with our sworn enemy Mohammed Shaybani!

The doubt in me prompted him to take this step.

My Khan, be fair.

Kasym is pure before you both in soul and deed.

Ali-Rashid!

I don't need your advice!

As long as the descendants of Urus Khan, the rest of the brothers-sultans,

are alive or well, no one will kick me in the back!

Khan,

if I have not justified your trust,

let me move out.

Instead of bothering your eyes,

I would rather, like my father Zhanibek, the right hand of Khan Kerey,

protect the borders

of our khanate and protect the peace of the people.

The Kazakh Khanate will not fall because of our quarrels!

And life will go on without you.

Altynbike died because of you.

She died with your name on her mouth!

Time flew by like the sparks of this bonfire,

days and months took off and dissolved in the blue sky of eternity.

Kasym moved to the fertile plains of Alatau

and married Aisha, wonderful as the moon.

She bore him two sons - Mamash and Abulkhair.

Elder, did Sultan Kasym already become Khan at that time?

Not yet.

But the people loved him and praised him for his foresight and kindness.

He patronized orphans and did not give offense to widows.

Sultan Kasym showed mercy to those who seek justice and refuge.

During feasts and folk festivals, notable people and honored guests

came to the village of Kasym from all over...

- Peace be upon you! - Peace to you too!

Welcome!

Did you get here safely?

Welcome!

My Sultan!

Guests arrived from Arkuka - Maksud Bek with his family.

Let them in!

If I am not mistaken Maksud Bek swear an oath to Shaybani.

What does it mean?

I'm as surprised as you are, Tanai.

- Welcome! - Just in time for the holiday! Be honored guests!

How are you?

- Greetings to you! - Come in!

May the God bless you! May your herds be fat!

- Pass on to the main yurt, please. - Thank you for the greeting!

If the enemy bows his head before you,

it is a true sign of your glory, Sultan Kasym.

I think there is nothing wrong in accepting them with dignity!

Right.

How can we refuse in hospitality to those who have come in peace?!

We welcome you! Happy holidays!

Peace be upon you, Sultan Kasym!

Peace to you too!

- Most honorable Sultans! - And we welcome you, Maksud Bek!

- Bii and glorious batyrs. - Welcome!

Sultan Kasym! Your glory has reached not only Arka and Alatau,

but has also reached Altai.

Your name stands next to the name of our glorious ancestor Jochi Khan and is already thundering all over the world.

A kind word for well-being!

May the God be pleased with you, Maksud Bek! Welcome!

We are all children of the same people, and we have nothing to share except common joy!

Please accept our gifts intended for you.

This sword was hammered by the masters of Isfahan.

Let it increase your honor!

It is a truly priceless gift.

A great weapon! Thanks! May the God bless you!

Urgent message to Khan Buryndyk!

Urgent message to Khan Buryndyk!

Damn Mohammed Shaybani!

Besieged Syganak

and killed Mahmud!

Call all the Sultans!

Let's go!

Send a staffette to Kasym!

I'll lead the army myself! I'll knock Shaybani out of Syganak myself!

It will be done, my Khan!

Such a restless person! Always is looking for you.

Come here.

Bunny!

He's interested in everything. He will be a glorious warrior.

Nothing will be better if he looks like you!

Here's a warhorse for you.

Here's a sword for you.

Become a thunderstorm of an enemy and a bulwark of the people!

Excuse me, my Sultan, a messenger has arrived from the Khan.

- Peace be upon you, my Sultan! - Take it.

We'll march at dawn!

My Khan,

may be it is better to wait Kasym Sultan?!

Let's start without him.

Time is short.

Shaybani is eager to fight!

As you wish!

Signor!

Come in.

The intelligence reported that Buryndyk had just come up with his army.

But Kasym is not with them!

God himself is on our side!

With one strike of the sword, I will kill Buryndyk.

Well,

the Kazakhs have been holding a siege for three weeks,

but tomorrow,

when Buryndyk will be defeated before their eyes -

they will open the gates themselves!

My Khan!

Khan is wounded!

Cover the Khan! All in the ring!

We're taking him off the battlefield!

Push the enemy!

Buryndyk! Come out to fight! Come here!

- It's time to bleed you! - Mohammed Shaybani! I'll drink your blood, you bastard!

Come out one-on-ones!

Let me go! I'm going to the battle!

Scared of one arrow? Are you running? Coward!

I'll knock your head off with my own hands!

Then don't run away, come on!

Stop the fight!

At dawn we will continue the battle!

Put up guards!

Gather the dead ones! Take the wounded to the camp!

Peace be upon you, Sultan Kasym!

We welcome you!

Peace to you too!

How did you get here, Sultan Kasym?!

Peace be upon you, my Khan!

How are you feeling, brother?

Thank God…

Be strong Kasym, your brother Mahmud Sultan

bravely defended Syganak and died as a hero.

- May his path to the other world be bright. - Amen!

You arrived on time.

Lead our army

and defeat the Shaybanids.

We pretty much beat them up.

I was close to winning, if it wasn't for my injuries.

Finish them off, Kasym!

Will be done, Khan!

I pray to the God for your quick healing!

When we enter Syganak, we will immediately throw out the Kazakhs!

We will drive them till the Betpak Desert!

- That's what we'll do! - Urgent report!

Hazret Sultan!

An army headed by Kasym came to help the Kazakhs.

Syganak is ours!

The Shaybanids ran away!

We defended our Syganak!

My Sultan! The Shaybanids have left the city!

No one can beat us with Sultan Kasym!

- We win! - We defended our Syganak!

We will not spare ourselves, but we will defeat the enemy!

May the God extend our joy!

Honor and glory to the winner - Sultan Kasym!

As long as Kasym is with us, no one will enter Syganak!

Victory has brightened our day!

Glory to our victory!

The insidious Shayban ran away as soon as he saw Kasym!

Glory to Sultan Kasym!

Seeing the banner of Kasym, the Shaybanids immediately ran away!

Now the borders are under the protection of Sultan Kasym and the people are safe!

The blood of Zhanibek Khan lives in glorious Kasym!

You are the shield of the people, Sultan Kasym!

May your name be known Sultan Kasym, the defender of Alash!

Seriously wounded Khan Buryndyk remained in Syganak.

Kasym became a military commander again.

Kasym gathered all the sultans - descendants of Jochi.

The unification of the troops led to victory, they returned all the Kazakh cities along the Syr Darya River.

First were Sauron and Yassy, then Otrar and other cities that belonged to the people of Alash since ancient times.

Thus, these cities forever involved into the Kazakh Khanate.

Such way they have expanded and strengthened our borders.

Truce between Khan Burundik and Mohammed Shaybani,

ended this prolonged war.

Later, Mohammed Shaybani left to the territory of Transoxiana.

There he used the discord between the descendants of Timur

and took the throne of Samarkand.

My Khan, the Kazakhs didn't care about your peace treaty with Buryndyk Khan!

His robbers are coming in a wild horde and robbing our people!

Our traders have great damages, they have lost valuable goods, livestock, and people!

Moreover, attacks on border settlements have become more frequent!

Where is the Khan's government looking?

The Great Khan, the vicar of the God on earth!

Please forgive my short tongue, which dares to oppose you.

After all, we ourselves attacked them and forced them to shed sorrowful tears?

I know what you want to say, Karim Bek,

of course, your rich lands have not been touched, trade has not suffered,

you have not lost a single person!

Maybe that's why you're so eloquent now?

Perhaps it is better to inform Buryndyk Khan, let him restrain his thugs?!

My Khan, everyone knows that the word of Buryndyk has no weight for a long time,

his relatives listen him rarer.

Kazakhs are already breaking all Sharia laws!

It's time to declare them gazavat - holy war!

Gazavat, my Khan!

Let's punish them by gazavat!

You are right!

The Kazakhs will be furious,

but Buryndyk will not break his word to me.

Meanwhile,

we will go to war against Kasym.

And in this time defeat is unacceptable!

Get ready!

- It will be done, my Khan! - We obey!

By the order of the great Khan Shaybani, gazavat was declared to the Kazakhs!

To ban Kazakhs enter the cities and trading cattle!

To prohibit any trade with the steppe people!

To punish any interaction with the Kazakhs!

To capture Kazakhs, both men and women, it is allowed to sell into slavery!

Why did we move from Syganak, my Khan?

- Did you think the enemies in Saraishyk would not reach us? - Stop complaining!

Are you burying your husband?

For sure, and this time Kasym will come up with something.

We welcome you, Sultan Kasym!

Welcome!

- Peace be upon you, Sultan Kasym! - Peace to you too.

Khan is waiting for you.

We have a peace treaty with Mohammed Shaybani.

Don't break it.

Leave it as it is.

Despite the fact that you are a Khan, I will tell you the truth, as a brother -

what kind of peace are you talking about when the Shaybanids declared ghazavat to us?!

The people are hoping for you and waiting for your determined actions!

Enough,

hold your tongue!

Then why are you breaking the testament of our fathers?

It's all in waste if we don't protect our people and our land, Khan!

Well, I give you complete freedom, act as you want!

We must urgently call a council!

- They have crossed all boundaries! - It's better to die than to endure this!

Honorable Sultan Kasym!

The Biy Council believes that the gazavat declared by the Shaybanids is a lie and calumny against the people of Alash!

The one who considers us unfaithful is an unfaithful himself!

Let them feel it for themselves!

We will not stand such an attitude to ourselves,

for a false gazavat our swords will be stained in their blood!

God is on the side of justice!

We were of the same faith, slander shivers to the bone!

Honorable!

All our troubles are caused by separation!

Where does unity come from if every Sultan, every Biy and Bek are only worried about themselves?!

- That's right, Sultan Kasym! - Power is in unity!

We unite only for a time, when we are threatened by the enemy.

If we continue to act separated,

we will never become a single people and everything remains in ruins!

- You're right! - It's true!

It is necessary to call people to order as soon as possible!

Therefore, I intend, with the help of the God and with the support of Khan Buryndyk,

to establish a single set of laws of the Kazakh Khanate!

- This is what we've been waiting for! - The people who honor the laws are not afraid of any enemy!

- God bless you, Sultan! - That's the right decision! We will support you!

Honorable Sultan Kasym!

Order!

Sultans and Beys, Bai and Beks, as well as the glorious Batyrs of our people -

every single one of us will follow you!

- Let's follow, lead us! - Let's unite!

We have made a decision!

Let's unite!

Skirmishes with the Shaybanids lead to war.

It's inevitable.

But in order to win it, I call on all sultans and biys, bais and beks

to obey orders without question,

get together in one fist and start preparing for the great fight!

- Lead us! - Just give the order!

This is unity!

- Our power is in unity, so let's unite! - We will not give them a single piece of our land!

Death to those who break the oath!

Let them know what the people of Alash are like!

We will give our lives for peace on our land.

Let's go!

Perhaps this difficult fight will decide the fate of Desht-i-Kipchak!

Signor,

we know the Kazakhs for long period,

we have been fighting with them all our lives,

either we quarrel, or we make up.

Because they as we are.

But you can't say the same about the southern neighbors - the Kyzylbashes!

Honorable Khan!

This time you'd better not engage in a fight with the Kazakhs.

The Kyzylbashes have already reached the Merv.

You're right, my glorious Bahadur.

Kazakhs are really our close!

Kyzylbashes is our main enemy!

It's decided!

You will lead the army to Kasym, Sherali,

and I will march against the Kyzylbash!

I hand you over to God!

Take care of yourself!

Son,

remember about my order, which I gave to you and Mohammed!

What can we do, it's the will of the God!

Return back safe and sound!

Mamash, my dear, may the God protect you!

- Take care of yourself, my sunshine!! - May the God be with you!

May the God protect you from enemy arrows! May he take away spears and swords from you!

May the God protect them!

A long time ago, the enemies of one of the Khans of our steppe

dared to demand his fleet-footed warhorse.

Khan asked: “is it really the horse worth the peace with the neighbors?”

And he gave away his beautiful horse.

The enemies became bolder and demanded beloved wife of the Khan to be given away.

The Khan also gave his wife.

And so, the impudent enemies desired a tiny piece of our land.

There was an empty and waterless desert.

But the Khan became angry, went with his army and defeated the enemies to the dust.

And he cut off the heads of the advisors who recommended giving up the land.

And then the Khan said: "The land is the foundation of the state."

Remember this, Kasym, and never forget!

My fearless warriors! An uphill fight is waiting for us!

But we must remember only one thing - we are fighting for our own land.

She absorbed the blood of our ancestors who gave their lives for it.

Every warrior's dream is to fight defending his land!

Sacrifice yourself for the sake of parents, wives and children, close and distant descendants!

A hero is born and dies for the people!

We are fighting for the freedom of the people, and our names will forever remain in their memory!

As long as our people are alive, we will live too!

Alash!

Alash!

Alash!

Give the signal!

Warriors, get ready!

Alash! Alash!

Don't spare yourselves warriors.

Let's protect our people! Go ahead!

Let's go!

Right and left flanks, split up! Go ahead!

Archers! Arrows!

My Sultan! Muhammad Shaybani is not visible in the enemy ranks!

The army is led by Sherali!

Fate favored him! He escaped death!

Kasym!

Fight with me!

Mamash!

Uncle Assan!

How are you, uncle Assan?!

Victory is already close! Please, be patient a little!

Mamash, I am happy to die on the battlefield!

Mamash, tell your father,

it is a great honor for me that I have spent my whole life next to him!

The Shaybanids are retreating!

We win!

Alash!

Do not retreat! Come back!

Kasym!

Go and tell them that you've lost!

Assan!

My brother,

may your soul rise to heaven!

How many brave warriors died in this bloody fight, for the happiness of the people!

I wish our descendants to honor and remember at what price we gained our unity!

Warriors, may this victory mark the beginning of the great life of the everlasting people!

Alash!

Victory!

Urgent news for Khan Shaybani!

Even with the swords of the whole world it is impossible to defeat the enemy, unless there is no will of the God…

You can't escape fate!

It would have been better if I had teamed up with Kasym against the Kyzylbash.

What a pity!

After the victory in Ulytau, Kasym's fame

spread far beyond Desht-i-Kipchak, till the furthest lands.

Although Buryndyk still remained on the throne,

the power in the Great Steppe was completely transferred to the hands of Kasym.

His influence was so great that people forgot about Khan Buryndyk.

Meanwhile, Kasym continued to work on a set of laws,

gradually entered the life and way of life of the people and gained true power,

helping to resolve disputes and litigation.

But there is no light without a shadow.

Having lived to an advanced age, Kasym's mother, the honorable Zhakhan Begim, passed away.

The whole nation sorrowed together with Kasym.

Kasym's brother, Mohammed Shaybani, was killed in one of the bloody fights with the Kyzylbashes

far from his homeland, on a foreign land...

Mom! Tell him to stop!

- Who is shouting? - Mohammed?

Mom! Tell Kasym to stop!

Mohammed! Stop lying, play fair!

Initially, you prove that I didn't fight fair!

- Come out, I'll prove it to you! - Kasym, what happened to you?

You behave worse than the enemies.

- Well, stop it! - You'll find out who's who,

a stranger, a brat of Urus Khan!

- What did you say?! - Shame on you!

Who taught you such words?

Mohammed, Kasym, you are brothers, your mothers are sisters,

moreover you have common roots.

From this time don't raise your hands at each other!

Keep the peace among yourselves!

Do you understand?

I was faithful to your words!

May your souls find peace in paradise!

May the God be pleased for your arrival at the funeral of my valiant,

the Khan-father who fell on the battlefield.

I share your sorrow with you, Mahmud-Timur Sultan!

Your father, Mohammed Shaybani, was an outstanding warrior of his era and my brother.

Despite our disagreements and our enmity, we had common goals.

Truly, we belong to the God.

Greetings, brother.

How is your health?

I'm fine, healthy, Kasym!

Please accept my condolences!

May the path of Zhakhan Begim to the other world be bright!

As soon as the news came, I immediately moved from Saraishyk to Syganak.

On the way, I also heard about the death of Mohammed Shaybani from the hands of the Kyzylbashes.

May they abide in the true faith.

Amen!

It is God's will.

Yes,

each of us has its own path of warrior, Kasym!

And someday it ends...

That's why I called you.

Khan Kasym!

May your path be bright!

May your happiness be great!

We entrust the fate of the people to your hands!

Khan Kasym!

Khan Kasym!

The Council of Biys has unanimously elected Sultan Kasym,

the son of Zhanibek, the Khan of the Kazakh people!

May your name and authority be recognized all over the world!

Praise God!

Alash!

Alash! Alash!

May your conscience be clear!

This is the Khan's sacred staff!

Hold tight the people's power entrusted to you!

May your ruling bring happiness to the people and be everlasting!

Continue the path of the Khans Zhanibek and Kerey!

Heads of classes rise up!

The Khan always serves to the people.

Let the people see it.

Remember that, Mamash.

Therefore, we will start from Syganak,

and then we will move around the entire Kazakh Horde.

According to the traditions of the Alash people, I command - holidays, funerals, commemorations,

held according to ancient customs,

from now are legal and compulsory for everyone - from the Khan to the commoner.

Next year we will settle here.

It seems that the ground here is fertile.

- Scout out what's ahead! - Will be done.

I have spent my whole life in the saddle, always honoring and remembering the testaments of my ancestors.

My dream was such peace and quiet on our land,

so that skylarks could build nests on the backs of sheep without fear!

Following the example of the ancient judges, I determined a new law on land, water and property:

if a person uses land, water for his own needs without the permission of the elders and biys,

then the sultan of that class will pay homage to the Khan's treasury and to the class

whose land, water and property his man invaded.

- That's right! - The right decision!

And it seems that I have achieved this goal.

But what will happen to my people tomorrow?

This thought haunts me at day and night.

Honorable Khan!

We ask you to take the Sairam city under your auspices and protection!

The Kazakhs' fame has spread all over the world.

But will our descendants be able to preserve the prosperity that we have achieved?

Please don't be offended, Sultan Said!

My warriors are not ready for winter fighting!

I can only pray for you.

We have nothing to do.

Respectfully, I accept your decision!

We maintain good relations with our neighbors.

I demand ubiquitous respect for the rights of ambassadors.

The entire nation is responsible for the safety of the ambassadors' lives

on the way to the Khan's headquarters.

Welcome hospitably, according to our customs.

Seeing off, provide everything they need.

May the God bless you, Nikita!

I also give Knyaz Vasily of Moscow a letter

wishing him health and prosperity!

I humbly thank you.

Whether our vast land will become the prey of greedy enemies in the future…

Is what worries me more.

According to the Genghis Khan's military laws,

each head of the class, the head of the tribe, according to the number of families,

is required to prepare and equip the army!

- That's right! - Yes, my Khan!

A warrior who leaves the battlefield while fighting will be sentenced to death!

- Completely agree! - That's what we need!

- It's the right decision! - We approve!

And the commander - will be punished!

We have reinstituted peaceful relations with the Mangyts,

from now you are allowed to winter on our lands!

Those who are guilty of murder, robbery, violence will be punished according to the ancestors' and Sharia law.

I order you to convey these instructions to all heads of classes and tribes.

- We will send a message to the people, my Khan! - That's right, my Khan!

Everything is in the hands of the Almighty, Kasym,

but a lot of things also depend on the desire of the people.

Whatever falls to their lot, they must fight for their freedom and happiness.

Therefore, at all times, noble sons with high purpose have been born

from noble mothers who care about the well-being of the people.

Each period has its own heroes.

You were destined to become the great Khan of Alash, Kasym.

Perhaps, people don't understand it now,

however I am sure, that for future generation

your name will be highly honored!

May the God protect the Kazakh people in all ages!

Amen.

May the mercy of the God be with you!

Sincerely, the governor of the Kazakh Khanate, Kasym, the son of Zhanibek.

Grandfather I am bored.

Come here, my dear!

Excuse me, my Khan!

It is all right!

It is enough for today, let's continue tomorrow!

Which horse are you going to ride?

Taushubar.

- He's so fierce - aren't you afraid? - I have already sat on it and did not fall.

This is the "Bright Path of Kasym Khan", my children.

Leasing the Kazakh people to the cherished goal,

Khan Kasym himself lived a happy and peaceful life.

That's how it was...

And you remember and pass on this story to others

so that the memory of him will be preserved in future generations!

Elder, will you tell us more about the glorious Khans and batyrs next time?!

Of course, I will...

During the ten years of his reign,

Kasym Khan strengthened the borders of the Kazakh Khanate,

the population under him reached one million people.

Under Kasym Khan, diplomatic relations

were established with all neighboring states.

Exactly in those years, Western Europe

heard about the Kazakh Khanate.

Kasym Khan remained in the memory of the people as a wise ruler,

reformer and legislator of the set of laws,

popularly called "The Bright Path of Kasym Khan".

Dedicated to our great ancestors,

who gave their lives in the name of freedom for future generations.

Dawn of the Great Steppe
