These khanates were established by two branches of the Shaybānid dynasty, which had won control of Transoxania from the Timurids in the late 15th and early 16th centuries. The Shaybānids in turn were replaced at Bukhara successively by the Astrakhanids and the Mangits. A third state, the Khanate of Kokand emerged in the mid-18th century.

In the 19th century its emir controlled the Khanates of Kokand and Khiva. These khanates were all conquered during 1866-1869 by the Russian Army and they were made protectorates of the Russian Empire.
