Dissolution
|
Kimek nation had come into existence as a result of
the integration of several Turkish tribes like the other nations that resembled to it. As
a consequence of the dissolution that took place in the middle of the century XI, we have
observed that some of the tribes of this union survived all alone or joined into the other
tribal unions. Kipchak people that constituted the most crowded tribe of the union had
expanded towards the western Siberian steppe lands and to the north of the Caspian Sea.
Some of these people extended towards the central Europe together with Kuman people. Then,
they established a new state composed of the tribal union in that region. Those who had
stayed in their places maintained their existence until the foundation of the new ethnical
communities in the century XV.
-
- The state of affairs
pertaining to Yimek people was the same as that of Kipchak people. Some of them stayed in
their regions while some of them passed to the Eastern Europe together with Kipchak
people. According to the news provided by Muhammed Nesevi (1241), we have learned that
Yimek people had came down to the banks of Seyhun River in the century of XII and they got
in the service of Harezmshah State in that region. They had played important roles in some
of the military expeditions and victories of this state.
-
- Minhac Cuzecani who
explained the military expedition of Harezmshah Muhammed in the year of 1218 stated that
he had chased after the Kangli Leader, Kadir Khan and he went to the region of Yugur town
in the north in the course of this pursuit. This Kadir Khan was from Yimek people and he
was the son of Safaktan-oglu Tatar Yusuf. According to the information pertaining to the
beginning of the century XIV, we have observed that some of the Yimek people that had gone
to Europe were among the Kipchak people in the Golden Horde State in the further periods.
-
- Bayandur people who
constituted another tribe in the union were not possibly a crowded and widespread tribe.
These people joined into the Oguz nation. Bayandurlu people that were among the Oguz
people rushed towards Turkey in the further periods. The Akkoyunlu lineage from Bayandurlu
tribe would establish a state including the Eastern Anatolia and Azerbaijan in the
beginning of the century XV.
We do not have any information about the state of affairs pertaining to the other tribes
of the Kimek tribal union pursuant to the dissolution. There was not the tribal name of
Kimek among the Turkish tribes and branches that lived in the Central Asia in the century
XIX and in the beginning of the century XX.
