Uzbeks
The Uzbeks (''Oʻzbek'', pl. ''Oʻzbeklar'') are the largest Turkic ethnic group in Central Asia. They comprise the majority population of Uzbekistan but are also found as a minority group in Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, Russia and China.〔(Chinese Nationalities (Uzbek Minority) (Ozbek) -- Minorities by Descending Populations )〕 Uzbek diaspora exist in Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Pakistan.
== Etymology ==
The origin of the word ''Uzbek'' remains disputed. One view holds that it is eponymously named after Oghuz Khagan. Oghuz Khagan also known as ''Oghuz Beg'', the word ''Uzbek'' is derived from the name of ''Oghuz Beg''.〔A. H. Keane,A. Hingston Quiggin, A. C. Haddon, Man: Past and Present, p.312, Cambridge University Press, 2011, Google Books, quoted: "Who take their name from a mythical Uz-beg, Prince Uz (beg in Turki=a chief, or hereditary ruler)."〕
Another states that the name means ''independent'' or the ''lord itself'', from ''Oʻz'' (self) and the Turkic title ''Bek/Bey/Beg''. There is another theory which holds that the pronunciation of ''Uz'' comes from one of the Oghuz Turks variously known as ''Uz'' or ''Uguz'' united with the word ''Bey'' or ''Bek'' to form ''uguz-bey'', meaning "leader of an oguz".
