It has been speculated that only the inner royal circle of the Khazars became Jewish, not the entire nation. In any case, they were located in the Crimea and conducted trade. Later, they were conquered and dispersed. They flourished around 1300-900 years ago. During that period they were successful. Reports of their status reached as far as Spain.

Who were the khazars?
The Khazars were a Turkic Empire in what is today southern Russia, around the Caspian Sea around the years 900-1000 CE. The elite of the Khazars converted to Judaism to trade more effectively with the Christians to the north and west and with the Muslims to the south and east. There are those who make the allegation (in spite of impressive amounts of evidence to the contrary) that the Khazars formed the basis for European Jewry. This Anti-Semitic canard is alleged in an attempt to remove the Jewish connection to the Middle East and therefore make the State of Israel illegitimate.

Where do khazars live?
The Khazars (capitalized because it is the name of a people) lived in the kingdom of Khazaria in central Asia. Khazaria was east of the Ottoman empire, in an area where nomadic people dominated. As a result, the borders were fluid. You can think of all of the kingdoms of that region as confederations of tribes, where allegiance to a particular leadership depended on tribal membership and not on any hard and fast borders on the ground.But the question was: Where do they live? Khazaria was eventually crushed between the Rus (viking ancestors of Russia), Bizantium, and nomadic tribes to the west. There is linguistic evidence that the Mountain Jews of the Caucus Mountains may be the modern descendants of the Khazars, but no proof. There are modern racists who believe that all Ashkenazic Jews are Khazars, but there's no evidence of that at all and a huge mountain of historical and archaeological evidence showing that Ashkenazic Jews descend from Jews who settled the Rhineland around 1200 years ago.
