They are also Turks, they're a part of the Kipchak Turk Branch. They have their own region, Karakalpakistan, in the northern part of Ozbekistan.

-------------
For Turks, the homeland isn't Turkey, nor yet Turkistan. Their country is a vast, eternal land: Turan!

Karakalpak is virtually the same as Kazakh.. the accents and intonations are very similar to those spoken in southern Kazakhstan.

They most likely have the same descent as most other nomadic peoples of those regions.. i.e Uzbek horde
