History

Answer:

The nations of central Asia struggle economically because of their dependence on the Soviet Union.

Explanation:

With the decline of socialism and the end of the Soviet Union, the way was opened for the Central Asian countries to promote the proclamation of independence from 1991 onwards. Then the Central Asian countries (Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan) and Uzbekistan) joined the CIS (Commonwealth of Independent States), an association created by former republics of the USSR.

Since independence these countries have struggled to overcome their economic problems, because the dependence of the Soviet Union has created many economic problems for these countries.

The biggest of these problems was Soviet intervention in the central Asian agricultural sector. The Soviet Union ordered all the fields to be cut down, the crops to be replaced by cotton. In this way a cotton monoculture was installed throughout central Asia. The problem is that cotton generates only one crop a year and relying on only one crop has weakened the country's economy.
