The Bukhara Soviet People's Republic was a short-lived Soviet client state established in 1920 after the Red Army destroyed the Bukharan Emirate — one of Central Asia's last traditional Islamic monarchies. This 1000-rouble note dates from 1922, the year the republic was nominally absorbed into Soviet structures before its formal dissolution in 1924 when the USSR's national delimitation of Central Asia erased it from the map entirely. The whole monetary apparatus of the BSNR existed for barely two years.
Notes of this series are scarce simply because the issuing authority collapsed so quickly.
