🇰🇿
I needed a Kazakhstan design for one interesting drawing, so I made it myself.. And it seems that I did more than i needed. I think anyone can use this design, I will be happy if others like it, even if the design is not that special.
I listened to "Sektor Gaza - kazach'ya".
By the way, it was quite cold today, not lower than -20°, in the morning it was almost -30°.

Kazakhstan headcanons
I haven't made a final design for Kazakhstan yet, but I have already thought some headcanons for him.
Here is a list of my hcs for him:
He hates the movie Borat. It was literally banned from theaters, as it was seen as offensive by many Kazakhs.
He has hazel/blue-ish eyes. They are not as light as european nations, but still he has lighter eyes than other asian nations.
Dimash Kudaibergen #1 fan
ESFJ
Friends with Sakha/Yakutia (the biggest Sakha diaspora is in Kazakhstan)
I still need to read further about his history with the other stans, but for now I think all of them are friends as well
On neutral terms with Mongolia. He still has some bad memories from the Mongol Empire.
He is trying to distance himself from Russia, or at least make Russia's/Soviet Union's influence less relevant to his country, as he is slowly getting back to his roots.
He is also in the process of switching his alphabet from Cyrillic to Latin (again, to distance himself from the Soviet Union's influence on his country)
He has some dry patches on his skin (because of the Aral Sea)
He also has some scars from old battles, and more recent burn scars on his back, as the Soviet Union had a lot of his nuclear weapons tested on his land.
<3 KYMYZ<3 He could drink this all-day
He takes his appearance seriously
In his free time he enjoys traveling around his country, especially in the countryside, or visiting his friends abroad. He is extroverted af
He also plays the Dombra. He is very talented!

To my understanding Russia has a robust science culture which likely hails from Soviet era. Most Russians I know are engineers and they usually like math/studied math at uni, and ppl typically seek out IT jobs bc it pays very well (hence the need to be able to math. Or at least related). So I headcanon that Vanya loves math and (esp during Soviet era) he was often in and out of classes/seminars and many esteemed mathematicians knew him dearly. He didn’t really seek out degrees, tho he’d had a few under his belt — after all, he is an immortal and has all the time he needs — but he sincerely loves studying math.
Anw he loves to use math to bully and troll ppl. He would give his victims very difficult math exams and tell them he would only let them out of the room if they’ve answered just 3 questions. All the way he’s berating them for being dumb like your Dad did when he taught you math as a kid. He’s made ppl cry that way

What is your relationship with turkey like? :]
You're doing this on purpose, aren't you?? I...I gotta go I hear someone calling me!
She only ran about a few steps before passing out on the floor. Sometimes I wonder what she sees in that guy...
Anyway, I'll be taking over for her in case you wanted the real answer.
She had tried to fight Iran once before with Turkey and Crimea back in 1578, but had to retreat for a while to take care of matters at home. Said matters being my brother and I rebelling against her rule on us. She did end up taking large areas of land from Iran, so I guess that's a win?
And then she did it again in 1616. She asked Turkey about a cooperative military offensive against Iran, to which he accepted and attacked Iran again. I kinda feel bad for Iran...that must have been annoying at best.
She used to talk to him and visit him quite often around the 1500s and 1600s. She also asked him for help in the face of Russian expansion around the 1700s and 1800s. However, we all know what happened...
One of his military generals, Enver Pasha, tried helping us in the Basmachi Revolt against the Bolsheviks, but unfortunately died in battle in 1918. His remains stayed in Tajikistan until the late 90s, where he was brought back to Turkey.
Initially Turkey did have good relations with the USSR due to the shared ideas of revolution and the overthrowing of the monarchy, but things got cold after Turkey joined NATO.
They never really talked to each other after that...
Until we all became independent. Turkey was the first nation to recognize all of our independences, and things were going well. Until Turkey took Muhammad Solih, the Uzbek President's opposition candidate, in to stay. Uzbekistan asked for him back, but in Karimov's tenure that meant bad news...and so Turkey refused. This started the deterioration of their relationship(all of us too, if I'm being honest–she was very cold and brash during this time and just did whatever she could to achieve her goals). She had also raided a lot of his office buildings and jailed his employees on accounts of "terrorism" for having prayer mats and religious books in the offices.
After Karimov died in 2016, a new era was ushered in as Vice President Mirziyoyev took office as President in 2017. He began to thaw relationships with the rest of us, including Turkey. My sister also finally joined the Organization of Turkic States as a full member in 2019! They started talking to each other like normal again, and they even worked on a drama together about the last prince of the Khwarazmian Empire, starring a Turkish and Uzbek actor and actress as the main characters who fall in love.
Hmm. I wonder if that reminds me of something...
Turkey's politicians constantly highlight how important Uzbekistan is as a gateway to other Central Asian countries(me totally me), and she's starting to move away from trading with Russia in favor of Turkey. He also gives her a lot of military weapons, like drones, and they've begun training together recently.
So to sum it up, I think they both benefit each other a lot economically, and Turkey's also very similar culturally with the rest of us.
Wait why do I see Kyrgyzstan with a suitcase looking angry?
Oh no I better stop him. Thanks for having me, the cooler brother- OH GOD

So I think it's the high time to show you all my characters.
Starting with this four. My lovely central Asian non-men. All of them could kill you, but 3 of them are too nice to do it without a good reason. I don't think it's hard to recognise the special snowflake.
(I lohe Afghanistan, he's just traumatised)
Kyrgyzstan 🇰🇬 - Ainura Kyrgyzsevna
Kazakhstan 🇰🇿 - Eldana Qunanbaiuly
Tajikistan 🇹🇯 - Mahtab (surname still in progress tho I think I'll stick with Shahfar)
Afghanistan 🇦🇫 - Mehr Balkhi (he/they, because they're bacha push!)
