KHIVA the walled City:
Until 1870 this was a sovereign Khanate ruled by traditional Khan from the lineage of his old Seljuk predecessors. During the last years of its Khanate it was increasingly a cause of concern for the eastern domains of Imperial Russia – the empire was also worried on the ever increasing influence of the British Empire in Central Asia and in order to check the English advance, Russia had to take swift action by devouring one after another small fiefdoms left by the decaying Ghengezid Empire. The two powers were had already begun The Great Game by influencing Central Asian rulers.
After the invasion of Khiva – Russian influence was marked with changes alluring the last of the Khan into submission. Imperial Russian hold continued till the rise of Bolsheviks and by 1920 things had already changed to a ‘new world order’ all the semi independent states were merged and rulers deposed, aristocracy killed or ran away to distant India. Khiva was never a Khanate onwards till the breakage of Soviet Union.

Bukhara or or Bukhara-i-Sharif or the revered Bukhara

Bukhara was once the seat of powerful Bukhara Khanate whose control extended beyond present day territories of Uzbekistan into northern Afghanistan and Tajikistan. It was the hub of trade with southern cities of Russia and India where caravans travelled for days through the deserts and in the modern age replaced of long hauling trucks. The history of Bukhara is very old that dates back to early Achaemenid times to the heathen Turkic tribes which swayed their power
across Transoxiana. It was then the invading Arabs who first sallied into Bukharan outskirts and defeated the local rulers to established a rule that totally changed the history of this region.
