COUNTRY PROFILES Home What's New About Contribute ... Contact Kazakhstan: GEOGRAPHY COUNTRY HISTORICAL BACKGROUND GEOGRAPHY SOCIETY ... NEWS GEOGRAPHY Location: Kazakhstan is located in the center of the continent of Asia, with a coastline only on the landlocked Caspian Sea. Russia forms its entire northern border. Click to Enlarge Image Size: Land Boundaries: Kazakhstan has common borders with the following countries: China (1,533 kilometers), Kyrgyzstan (1,051 kilometers), Russia (6,846 kilometers), Turkmenistan (379 kilometers), and Uzbekistan (2,203 kilometers). Length of Coastline: Maritime Claims: Jurisdiction over oil, natural gas, and other resources in the Caspian Sea is in dispute with other littoral states. Topography: Principal Rivers: Climate: Because Kazakhstan has no exposure to maritime weather patterns, the entire country has a continental climate featuring cold winters and hot summers. Rainfall, which varies from 100 to 200 millimeters per year, generally is heavier in the south and in the eastern mountains. Natural Resources: Land Use: In 2001 some 8 percent of land was rated as arable, a reduction from the 1998 estimate of 11.2 percent. Less than 0.1 percent of that land was under permanent crops. About 4.8 percent is forest and woodland. The remainder is pastureland, meadows, desert, and mountains. In 2001 irrigated land totaled an estimated 24,000 square kilometers.

Kazakhstan is the westernmost of these republics and the largest. It is bordered on the North and West by Russia and in the South by Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan. It shares a border with China in the East and has over 1,000 miles of coastline on the Caspian Sea but no access to the ocean. The climate is similarly diverse, with heavy snow and cold winters in the Eastern mountain area and extremely dry and desert-like conditions in the South and West of the country. Some central areas have a more temperate climate and thus good agricultural land. The country suffers from the effects of the Soviet Era's "Virgin Lands" program, in which land more suitable for grazing was irrigated and forced to produce cotton, wheat and rice. To compensate for the lack of rainfall, huge irrigation projects were built; these have resulted in the drying up of the Aral Sea, and the salinization of much of the land.
