Central Asian relations explained I guess

Well, I have talked to a bunch of different people from Central Asia about their opinions about each other, most of people said they like eachother and easily get along when see someone from CA abroad, but there are still some reasons they may have beef with each other. Correct me if I'm wrong

Uzbeks might not like kyrgyz for uzbek massacres in Kyrgyzstan in 1990 and 2010

Tajiks might not like kyrgyz for 2022 border clashing

Kazakhs might not like kyrgyz for decapitation of their last Khan, Kenesary Qasymov. And for suspending water flow to kazakh farmers

Kyrgyz and kazakhs might not like uzbeks for becoming settled merchants and mixing with tajiks so now they have more persian looking appearance. They can call them "sart" which can be considered as slur word

Tajiks might not like uzbeks because they think Samarkand and Bukhara are tajik lands (I don't know if it's true or not tbh) which they stole and forced local tajiks to call themselves uzbeks

Kyrgyz might not like tajiks for border clashing in 2022

Uzbeks might not like tajiks because they claim that they're mongols and there's no uzbek culture but only turkified tajik

Kazakhs might not like tajiks because they are iranics? (Correct me if Im wrong)

Kyrgyz might not like kazakhs because they have big ego

Uzbeks might not like kazakhs because they have bug ego

Tajiks might not like kazakhs because they have big ego

But there's one thing that unites all of them. They all don't have opinions about turkmens🇹🇲
