The Kyrgyz SSR formally known as the Kyrgyz Soviet Socialist Republic (alternative transliteration: Kirghiz), also known as Kirgizia, was the name for Kyrgyzstan during most of its time as part of the USSR. Established on 14 October 1924 as the Kara-Kyrgyz AO (Autonomous Oblast) of the Russian SFSR, it was transformed into the Kyrgyz ASSR (Kyrgyz Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic) on 1 February 1926, still being a part of the Russian SFSR.
On 5 December 1936 it became a separate constituent republic of the USSR as the Kirgiz Socialist Soviet Republic.
The country declared its independence on 31 August 1991, having been renamed the Republic of Kyrgyzstan a day before.
