Anrakai Battle

The Battle of Añyraqai was a battle that took place during the Kazakh-Dzungar Wars in April 1730. There are not many records about the Kazakh-Dzungar Wars because the Kazakh people did not have a written tradition of transmitting information at the time. The folk legend about the battle recorded in 1905 by the researcher and collector of Kazakh folklore, A. A. Divaev, tells that the battle took place between Lakes Balkhash and Alakol in present-day Almaty Region. The war between Kazakhs and Dzungars lasted for 7 years (1723–1730). The war ended with the victory of a single force consisting of members from all three main clans (jüzes) under the supreme command of Kazakh ruler Abu'l-Khair Muhammed Khan (1710–1748).
