National Anthem of the Republic of Uzbekistan
The
National Anthem of the Republic of Uzbekistan came into being when
Uzbekistan was a
republic of the
Soviet Union. Upon
independence in
1992, lacking any prior history as a nation or prior national anthem, the old anthem as a Soviet republic, written by Abdulla Aripov and composed by Mutal Burhanov, was retained.
