By the early 17th century, Khiva had become the capital of the Khanate of Khiva, ruled over by a branch of the Astrakhans, a Genghisid dynasty.<br \/>\n<img class=\"alignleft\" style=\"width: 150px;\" src=\"http:\/\/uzbekintour.com\/images\/150px_Khiva_.gif\" alt=\"Khiva View\" \/><br \/>\nIn 1873, Russian General Von Kaufman launched an attack on the city, which fell on 28 May 1873. Although the Russian Empire now controlled the Khanate, it nominally allowed Khiva to remain as a quasi-independent protectorate.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"#top\">To Top<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Introduction Khiva (Uzbek: Xiva, \u0425\u0438\u0432\u0430; Russian: \u0425\u0438\u0432\u0430, Khiva); Alternative or historical names include Khorasam, Khoresm, Khwarezm, Khwarizm, Khwarazm, Chiwa, and Chorezm) is the former capital of Khwarezmia and the Khanate of Khiva and lies in the present-day Khorezm Province of Uzbekistan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"link","meta":[],"categories":[9],"tags":[11,36],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/uzbekintour.com\/dir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/175"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/uzbekintour.com\/dir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/uzbekintour.com\/dir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/uzbekintour.com\/dir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/uzbekintour.com\/dir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=175"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"http:\/\/uzbekintour.com\/dir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/175\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":178,"href":"http:\/\/uzbekintour.com\/dir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/175\/revisions\/178"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/uzbekintour.com\/dir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=175"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/uzbekintour.com\/dir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=175"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/uzbekintour.com\/dir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=175"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
