Abstract:The Turkmen nation, with its profound historical and cultural heritage, has witnessed a road of tortuous and complicated historical development. Though Turkmen people scatter around the world in different living environments, they share such characteristics as a strong sense of national identity and worship of neighborly friendship and peace. The modern Turkmenistan has chosen the road of independence and neutrality. With the help of various resources, it has adopted diversified paths with distinctive characteristics in its construction. At present, Turkmenistan is working with China to implement the rejuvenating of the ancient Silk Road and the constructing of a community with a shared future for all mankind. Chinese society needs to have a new understanding of Turkmens and their Nation State Building.
