Abstract: The Khiva Khanate, a significant political and economic entity in Central Asia from the 16th to the 20th century, played a crucial role in regional trade, agriculture, and handicraft production. The economic structure of the Khiva Khanate was shaped by its geographical location, natural resources, socio-political organization, and external trade relations. The economy was primarily based on agriculture, irrigation systems, caravan trade, and local handicrafts, with landownership patterns and taxation systems deeply influencing economic stability. This thesis examines the distinctive features of the economy of the Khiva Khanate during the Kungrad period, focusing on agriculture, trade, taxation, handicrafts, and external economic relations. It also explores the impact of internal administrative policies and foreign trade on economic development.
