Tajikistan (TJ) Summary

Tajikistan (TJ) has no major boundary disputes, although its border with China is considered not to be final. Its area is 143 100 km² and its population is 6 127 000 (2000 census).

There are 4 entries in the world atlas for Tajikistan (TJ), which correspond to provinces, except that Dushanbe and the surrounding Region of Republican Subordination (RRS) are not provinces. They are enumerated below, with links. The 4 provinces, Dushanbe, and the RRS are subdivided into 59 districts.

Many names in this section are derived from Soviet maps. These are marked with (R). These names may not be correct in Tajik and some may have been changed after the dissolution of the Soviet Union. In some cases where 2000 census populations were not found, the 1989 Soviet census is used. This is noted in the world atlas entries.

Tajikistan (TJ) Dushanbe and Regions of Republican Subordination

Image: The 300 meter high Nurek Dam (constructed 1980) on the Vakhsh River, the highest dam in the world, has a generating capacity of 3,000 megawatts. The Vakhsh is fed by glaciers in the vicinity of Ismoil Somoni Peak, the former Pik Kommunisma, which at 7 495 meters above sea level was the highest mountain in the Soviet Union. The electricity generated by dams on the Vakhsh is the main electricity source in Tajikistan, and much is used in aluminum manufacturing at Tursunzoda. The unfinished Roghun Dam, upriver from the Nurek Dam near Obigarm, was proposed to be 335 meters at completion.
