Estate

Töre is the Toqa-Timurides.

The töre estate was at the head of the Kazakh Khanate throughout its history and, by right of the descendants of Genghis Khan, had a number of privileges: the title of sultans, from which the khan was chosen, possession of his feudal inheritance. Since the Töre clan is higher than all the jüzes, it went overshadowing the jüzes.

According to incomplete data (in 20 districts of the Turkestan, Semipalatinsk, Semirechensk, Syr-Darya and Turgay regions), at the end of the 19th - beginning of the 20th century there were 28 thousand Töre.
