The Bashkir Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic (
autonomous republic of the Russian SFSR. Currently it is known as Republic of Bashkortostan, a federal subject of Russia.[3] The Bashkir ASSR was the first Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic in the RSFSR.[4][5][6]
The republic occupied an area of 143,600 km2 (55,400 sq mi) in the far south-eastern corner of
Russian Orthodoxy. A major battleground of the Russian Civil War, in 1919 the Bashkir Republic was the first ethnic region to be designated an autonomous republic of Russia under the new communist government. The republic declared its sovereignty within the Soviet Union on 11 October 1990 as Bashkir Soviet Socialist Republic, and in 1992 it declared full independence. Two years later, Bashkortostan
agreed to remain within the legislative framework of the Russian Federation, provided that mutual areas of competence were agreed upon.
The republic has rich mineral resources, especially petroleum, natural gas, iron ore, manganese, copper, salt, and construction stone. The Soviet government built a variety of heavy industries on that resource base. The traditional Bashkir occupations of livestock raising and beekeeping remain important economic activities.
