Crimean Tatars: Encyclopedia - Crimean Tatar diaspora

The Crimean Tatar diaspora dates back to the annexation of Crimea by Russia in 1783, after which Crimean Tatars were forced to emigrate in a series of waves spanning the period from 1783 to 1917. The diaspora was largely the result of the destruction of their social and economic life as a consequence of Russian colonization policies. The Soviet Union brought about the final dispersal of Crimean Tatars in 1944, in the midst of the Second World War, when it deported all Tatars remaining in the Crimea to Central Asia. This populat ...

Crimean Tatars: Encyclopedia - Crimean Karaites

The Crimean Karaites (sometimes known as Karaim) are a Karaite Jewish community of Eastern Europe. Originally centered in the Crimean Peninsula, the Karaim were established in Lithuania and elsewhere in Europe from late medieval times.

Their self-designation, Karaim (or, in the Karaim language, Qaraylar), however, is insufficient, as it fails to disti ...
