The article deals with the existing designations of states created on the foundation of the Ulus of Jochi, theinformation from written sources about the names of the Jochid states, as well as the reflection of these names inthe popular memory of the Qazaqs and some interpretations in today’s research environment. These issues wereactualized in Qazaqstan in connection with the 800th anniversary of the Ulus of Jochi. The use of the traditionalethnogeographical designation Dasht-i Qipchaq as the most common name for the Ulus of Jochi as well as thenames associated with it, such as Qipchaq, Bulgar, and Crimea, are considered. After the All-Mongol WesternCampaign, the Batuid State in the west and the Ordaid State in the east were formed in the Ulus of Jochi. Bothstates became independent after the actual collapse of the Mongol Empire in the 1360s. It is incorrect to applythe name Golden Horde to both states, since the Golden Horde is only the Batuid State. It is also incorrect to callthe Golden Horde Ulugh Ulus, since this name was first used by Toqtamysh Khan only in 1393. In the popular epicconsciousness, the name Nogayly appeared as early as the 1280s–90s, with the Manghits becoming the leadingforce. Nogayly (Nogay country) were a Qipchaq people, territorially settled within the Ulus of Jochi. In conclusion,some recent academic and non-academic publications on the Ulus of Jochi are highlighted, and the main featuresof the non-academic publications are shown.
