Yettishar[a] (Chagatai: یته شهر; Uyghur: يەتتەشەھەر; lit. 'Seven Cities' or 'Heptapolis'), also known as Kashgaria,[4] was a Turkic state that existed in Xinjiang from 1864 to 1877, during the Dungan Revolt against the Qing dynasty.[5][6] It was an Islamic monarchy ruled by Yakub Beg, a Kokandi who secured power in Kashgar (later made Yettishar's capital[7]) through a series of military and political manoeuvres.[4] Yettishar's eponymous seven cities were Kashgar, Khotan, Yarkand, Yengisar, Aksu, Kucha, and Korla.[8]
In 1873, the Ottoman Empire recognised Yettishar as a vassal state and Yakub Beg as its emir.[9]: 152–153
On 18 December 1877, the Qing army entered Kashgar and brought the state to an end.[6]
