Located in Central Asia and crossed by the ancient Silk Road, this small montainous country was influenced by several cultures - such as Indo-Iranian, Turkic, Chinese and Russian - through its vast History. Politically and economically isolated, Kharzanistan now tries to be open to the world, searching for its own development.
