The Togoti Khaganate, which was known domestically as the Hosts and Realms of the Bashtug (බස්හ්තුගිඉන් තුමේනුඋද් බ තල්බෛනුඋද්, Bashtugiin Tumenuud Ba Talbainuud), was an Togoti empire that arose in the northwestern region of the Great Steppe in modern day Ajahadya during the late 15th century and established the largest steppe empire in history. At the height of its power in the early 17th century, the Togoti Khaganate controlled all of Ajahadya, Chanda, Gulbistan, and Kumuso as well as large parts of Zorasan and Baekjeong.

The Togti Khaganate was declared by Tsustemori Khan in 1479 after the Togti Khanate's conquest of Khorshid Confederacy. The eponymous "bashtug", composed of a tug and a sheep head, was a personal symbol adopted by Tsustemori Khan after the declaration of the Khaganate. Over the next two centuries the empire grew rapidly, establishing an Khaganate that stretched from northern Baekjeong in the south to northwest Zorasan in the north and Ajahadya in the west to Kumuso in the east. The vast and multi-ethnic nature of the empire allowed the dissemination and exchange of trade, technologies, commodities and ideologies across Coius as well enabling the migration of many peoples across the continent.

After the death of Gurkhan in the invasion of Xiaodong, the Khaganate collapsed into a civil war between his two sons Ajahad and Khardar. The war led to a severe and rapid collapse of the Khaganate's power as it lost large amounts of territory to a series of invasions by neighboring states and rebellions. A notable rebellion was led by Akdoğan, a powerful general stationed in modern-day Chanda. Instead of fighting in the civil war, he used it as an opportunity to establish his own fiefdom which would become the Akdoğan Khanate. After two years of confict, Gurkhan's sons eventually agreed to split the remnants of the empire between them, creating the Rajadom of Ajahadya and the Khardarid Khanate. The split in 1665 marked the end of the Khaganate, with the two main remnants pursuing their own interests and objectives.

The Karadarid Khanate would exist only for a couple decades until its conquest by the Second Gorsanid Empire. Meanwhile the Rajadom of Ajahadya, the direct predecessor to the modern state of Ajahadya, continued to exist until a coup and the resulting Ajahadyan Civil War led to the formation of a republic in 1935. The Akdoğan Khanate continued to rule until the vassalisation of the Khanate by the Heavenly Xiaodongese Empire in the late 19th century.
