The city was founded in 1830 by Russian troops as the fortress of Akmola, the name being derived from the Kazakh words ak (white) and mola (grave). It became a trading center and stopping place for caravans traveling from Tashkent and Bukhara to European Russia. In 1832 it was designated a town and renamed Akmolinsk, and in 1868 it was made a district capital in Akmolinsk Province (the provincial capital was Omsk). Soviet power was established in the city on Dec. 25, 1917 (Jan. 7, 1918). Captured by White Guards in June 1918, it was liberated by the Red Army on Nov. 26, 1919.
