•  Tomsk Oblast The Chulyms, also Chulym Tatars or Tom Karagas (self-designation: Сыбырлар, Sıbırlar), are a Turkic people in the Tomsk Oblast and Krasnoyarsk Krai in Russia.

The Chulyms appeared in the 16th century as a result of mixing of some of the Turkic groups, who had migrated to the East after the fall of the Khanate of Sibir, partially Teleuts, Yenisei Kyrgyz and groups of Tobolsk Tatars.

[3] In the early 19th century, the Chulyms were mandated by an edict from the Russian authorities to increase their productivity which further disenfranchised them as they were already burdened with heavy taxation.

Under Soviet rule, the Chulyms were collectivized and forced to adopt a sedentary lifestyle.

They speak Chulym-Turkic language known as Ös and adhere to a religious mixture of Sunni Islam, Russian Orthodoxy and Shamanism.
