The Kyrgyz SSR, formally known as the Kyrgyz Soviet Socialist Republic (alternative transliteration: Kirghiz), also known as Kirgizia, was one of fifteen constituent republics of the Soviet Union. Established on 14 October 1924 as the Kara-Kyrgyz AO (Autonomous Oblast) of the Russian SFSR, it was transformed into the Kyrgyz ASSR (Kyrgyz Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic) on 1 February 1926, still being a part of the Russian SFSR. Today it is the independent state of Kyrgyzstan in Central Asia.
On 5 December 1936 it became a separate constituent republic of the USSR as the Kyrgyz Soviet Socialist Republic during the final stages of the national delimitation in the Soviet Union.
The country declared its independence on 31 August 1991, having been renamed the Republic of Kyrgyzstan a day before.
