Astro-Uzbek philosophy, or Uzbek Astronism, refers to the presence of Astronism in the Republic of Uzbekistan under management and philosophical jurisdiction of The Institution of The Philosophy of Millettism for the Republic of Uzbekistan, a national subsidiary for the worldwide Astronist Institution. The Institution of the Philosophy of Millettism for the Republic of Uzbekistan oversees the construction and maintenance of observatories and planetariums throughout its jurisdiction. Uzbekistan is split into twelve provinces and is set to hold one Grand Observatory in the capital city of Tashkent. This national branch of The Institution of The Philosophy of Millettism manages the official representation and depiction of Astronism throughout this territory, including efforts to protect the identity of the philosophy with the intention of further disseminating it throughout the territory. It is The Institution alone that is granted the status of proprietor to the philosophy in this territory as any other organisations or institutions proclaiming such a role are deemed as unauthorised proprietors and are therefore considered as part of the anti-Institutionist movement. History of Astronism in Uzbekistan. In its 2020 Astronist Freedom report, the Astronist Institution designated the religious liberties for Astronists in Uzbekistan as terminal, the worst ranking a country can receive. The government in Uzbekistan is not tolerant of religious minorities and Astronism has not been recognised as a religion in the country. Only a very small proportion of Uzbeks are Astronists, numbering around 100 people as of November 2019 figures obtained by the Astronist Institution. Furthermore, Astronist content had not yet been translated into the Uzbek language as of late 2019 which presented another barrier to Uzbeks having access to materials on Astronism.
