Medieval Era
The sentiment of Spagistani separatism has been present since Medieval times. The cold semi-arid climate of Eastern Uzbekistan has lead to cultural and language differences with surrounding provinces. The prominent religion during the time was totemism. During the Ottoman-Hungarian War, Vlad Tepes of Wallachia was known to prefer ethnic Spagistani mercenaries for their unfettered lust for blood, they proved valuable as shock troops.

Early Industrial Era
The ideological differences in exchange value vs use value  are the leading factors that caused the split from parent-state Uzbekistan in modern times. Following Karl Marx and Frederick Engels' seminal work, The Communist Manifesto Spagistan was taken by storm. Sweeping reforms took place in ethnic Spagistani controlled districts of Uzbekistan. The old burgher and guild masters were executed and the proletariat were established to their rightful place as dictators of society. Class consciousness was achieved by Collectivism was consolidated as the doctrine of institutions of higher learning.
