<span class="mw-page-title-main">Tatars</span> Umbrella term for different Turkic ethnic groups in Asia and Europe

The Tatars, sometimes erroneously referred to as Tartars, is an umbrella term for different Turkic ethnic groups bearing the name "Tatar" across Eastern Europe and Asia. Initially, the ethnonym Tatar possibly referred to the Tatar confederation. That confederation was eventually incorporated into the Mongol Empire when Genghis Khan unified the various steppe tribes. Historically, the term Tatars was applied to anyone originating from the vast Northern and Central Asian landmass then known as Tartary, a term which was also conflated with the Mongol Empire itself. More recently, however, the term has come to refer more narrowly to related ethnic groups who refer to themselves as Tatars or who speak languages that are commonly referred to as Tatar.

Since the 1960s, the changes in political and economic factors have significantly altered the ethnic composition of groups in the region.
