Tatarstan, officially known as the Republic of Tatarstan, is a federal subject within the Russian Federation, situated in the Volga Federal District, with its capital in Kazan. The region gained independence from the Mongols in the 1430s, establishing the Kazan Khanate with Kazan city as its capital. However, in the 1550s, the Russian Tsar Ivan IV the Terrible conquered the Kazan Khanate.

Tatarstan's strategic location at the crossroads of two major civilizations, Eastern and Western, has contributed to its rich cultural heritage, shaped by historical and geographical factors.

The Aq Bars is the emblem of Tatarstan, featuring an ancient Bulgar symbol interpreted as "White Leopard" or "Snow Leopard." Adopted as the official symbol in 1991, this historical emblem traces its roots to Volga Bulgaria and the Khanate of Kazan, the predecessors of Tatarstan. The snow leopard symbol originates from the totems of the Bulgar tribe known as the Barsil, who, according to legend, founded Bilär in Volga Bulgaria. The present emblem was created by the artist Rif Fäxretdinov.
