The Katagans are a medieval Mongol tribe related to Genghis Khan. In the period of Mongol conquest, Katagans assimilated with Turkic tribes, which played a significant role in their Turkification and integration into the Turco-Mongol cultural sphere. This process contributed to the ethnogenesis of modern Kazakhs, Kyrgyz, Karakalpaks, Uzbeks, Buryats, Uyghurs, Hazaras, and others.
