Kyrgyzstan (also Kirgizia or Kirghizia) is a country in Central Asia.
This is an excellent guide for all CIS countries in general, but unfortunately in Russian. http://ve.free-travels.ru/articles/?region=CIS
Kyrgyz cars have Rooms with a red stripe on the left, which depicts kirghiz emblem. The first number indicates the letters Region: B - Bishkek, N - Naryn oblast., C - Chui, I - Issyk-Kul, O - Osh, D-Jalal-Abad, A - Batken, T - Talas. Sometimes others are old Soviet numbers.
