How did the Turkic and central Asian tribes go from being the greatest conquerors of Asia/Eurasia to being under the hegemony of Russia?

Guns, mostly.

Political infighting, disputes of succession, civil war, and the fragmentation of the empire. This led to the areas of Mongol influence to gradually shrink while other powers grew. Eventually they were weak enough to the point where China under the Qing Dynasty conquered Mongolia, and the PRC still holds Inner Mongolia.

Large population growth and technological advancement by non-nomadic peoples.

Are Turks Mongols?

Pretty close

The turkish people of Turkey are really far removed from the original turks

not really. partially infused with crusaider kingdom blood but its the reasoned point for the countries existence

More like partially infused with persians and then almost completely infused with native Anatolian greeks

well the answer for that is really simple; population

you see russia saw a boom of population after they started blobbing up. by 1900s they had a population of 130+ million, in 30 years they increased that number by 30 million
a comparison can be made with the ottoman empire, another large sized empire at the time and they only had a population of 20 million.
the steppe people on the other hand didn't have large populations, none of them were higher than 10 million population(today uzbekistan is the largest with 30 million) and did not have the technological advancements of the russians.
so when russia came they quite successfully integrated the steppe people without too much bloodshed. they integrated them in so well in fact that in just one generation there were turkic people in all levels of russian society

This and only this

interesting to note that Imperial Russia was the 3rd largest country in the world at the time and that Germany feared them more than France.
1900 population
1 Qing China 415,001,488
2 Indian Empire[a] (UK) 280,912,000
3 Russian Empire 119,546,234

Turks had guns, and by extension the crimeans and such. .

Eh, really? The modern-day Turks are a quasi mixture of Native Anatollians, Persians, Kurds, Balkanians(south Slavs, Greeks, Albanians, Romanians), Circassians, Georgians etc...

They're pretty much the Brazil of the middle-East. They barely have any of that old Turkic blood. A lot of the original Turks that founded the Sultanate of Rum died off in battle.

when turks entered anatolia they didn't have much turkic blood in them anyways, just check the genetics of other turkic countries in the steppe
turks have a knack for mixing in whatever they come by

well germany feared them more than france because russia raised 12 million soldiers
if they could break the line they would be basically unstoppable

turks and turkics were far and divided at the time and did not have much(if any) communication

Reason the nomads lost is that the Russians were untied by an Emperor which destroyed and dominated every petty interest in his Empire from nobles to peasants.

There was only the Emperor's will, any individual interest who threatens his will of glory and strength to the Russian nation would be destroyed.

Well a Steppe Nomad group did conquer China though and was its last dynasty.

>Manchus
>Steppe Nomad.
Nope.jpg. Ever since the Jurchen Jin dynasty they were pretty settled. They were more like Korea & Japan as opposed to Mongolia: an Sinicized people already who lived sedentary and farmed. Though some of them lived like their nomadshit ancestors.

Also they conquered China because it was divided. Militarily, they utilized a lot of firearms as opposed to the meme Horse Archers in the process, as seen with the Qing Conquest of Mongolia.

An Empire and Kingdom is the highest stage of a nations progress, reactionaries from earlier states destroy the progress many times.

turk/mongol dna communication is a thing

By adapting to their style of combat,the Russians began to develop tactics that gave them ability to survive the initial,yet always dead onslaught of their Asiatic nemesis,which in return prove to be far too difficult for them to cope with.

They've beat them at their own game,plus they've began to deploy guns on a large scale.

Has anybody a picture of how their cities looked like?
The moment they webt imperial they must had more on their steppes then jurts.
Ghengus build a pretty big one after all in central asia.

Chinese inspired I'd imagine

This looks like it came straight out of old Persia.
