After the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, the Central Asian countries faced many political and economic problems. One of the most crucial problems was the independence of the energy sector of the independent states (Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan and Tajikistan) and the future of the energy policy of the Central Asian countries. The backwardness of the 2000s, population growth, increased energy demand in the winter months, and growing energy supply to farms regularly resulted in seasonal power outages throughout the region. Despite these difficulties, the countries of the region pursued policies aimed at attracting foreign investment in energy development. However, the distance of the countries of the region from the European market for hydrocarbon sources did not allow the implementation of oil and gas pipeline projects from Central Asia to the West. As a result, the energy policy of Central Asian countries was primarily determined by cooperation with China and Russia. The paper focuses primarily on the energy security of the Central Asian countries, while providing insight into the energy situation of the countries in the region and briefly presenting the underlying energy policies of the countries concerned.

After the regime change in 1991, professionals and non-professionals (attempted several times) to prepare the historical summary of Transcarpathia. Some of these volumes still bear the marks of Soviet historiography, or were written in the heat of political and national emotions. Furthermore, only one era from our millennial past is discussed. Despite the challenges, it is important to accurately and objectively process the history of this region and provide a comprehensive picture of it.

By Eurasia we mean the supercontinent consisting of Europe and Asia, which is geologically a single continent. Despite its political, economic, and cultural heterogeneity, the term Eurasia has been important in geopolitics since its inception. Since the 2000s, the region has become even more important, so that one can speak of the emergence of a Eurasian era, in which economic, political, and military power is increasingly shifting eastward, while the Atlantic region is losing its central importance.
