Second Chui Volost

From Warlike




The Second Chui Volost was a state with partial sovereignty, that existed on the territory of the modern Kosh-Agachsky District of the Altai Republic. In 1865, it became a volost of the Russian Empire and subsequently a district of modern Russia. Most of its territory was inhabited by the Telengits, also known as Altaians-Dvoedans, who were tributaries to the Russian Empire and the Qing Empire. It was traditionally ruled by Zaisans of the Ak-Kebek dynasty.
