A BRIEF INTRODUCTION TO UYGHURS & EAST TURKISTAN
ALL ABOUT THE UYGHURS
Uyghur (also spelled Uighur, Uygur) means "unity" or "alliance”, it is pronounced [ÖY-ghur or Uigu:R]. They are a Turkic ethnic people.
Pre-history Uyghurs: the name Uyghur (Uighur) appeared for the first time 17, 0000 years ago in the pre-historic period with The Great Uighur Empire in the Continent of Mu during the Tertiary Era Belonged to the Continent of Mu .
James Churchward describes in his book “the great Uighur Empire” as the largest and most important colonial empire belonging to Mu, the Empire of the Sun. "Next to Mu herself, the Uighur Empire was the largest empire the world has ever known."
Uyghur history can be divided into four distinct phases: Pre-Imperial (300 BC – AD 630), Imperial (AD 630–840), Idiqut (AD 840–1200), and Mongol (AD 1209–1600), with perhaps a fifth modern phase running from the death of the Silk Road in AD 1600 until the present.
Most people know that Tibet was occupied by China in 1950 but how many know that the Uyghurs' country East Turkistan (Xinjiang 'new frontier' in Chinese) was occupied by China in 1949?
The present Uyghurs are the native people of East Turkistan (Uyghuristan, Xinjiang - China). The population of the Uyghurs is an estimated 20 million. East Turkistan's current territory is 635, 000 square miles (1,646,900 square km), its territorial size is 6 times bigger than the UK.
Some historical sources indicate that the Uyghurs are the direct descendants of the Huns .
