Kirghiz SSR (Kirghiz Soviet Socialist Republic), also known as Kirghizia, was the name for Kyrgyzstan during most of its time as part of the USSR. Established on 14 October 1924 as the Kara-Kirghiz AO (Autonomous Oblast) of the Russian SFSR, it was transformed into the Kirghiz ASSR (Kirghiz Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic) on 1 February 1926, still being a part of the Russian SFSR.

On 5 December 1936 it became a separate constituent republic of the USSR as the Kirghiz Socialist Soviet Republic.

The country declared its independence on 31 August 1991, having been renamed the Republic of Kyrgyzstan a day before.
