description Purpose of the study: Recently, much fruitful work has been done to identify and study the Nogai component in the structure of the highest stratum of service people of the Russian state in the 16th–17th centuries. In particular, a list of clans was established, these having every reason to consider themselves Edigeevichs – the descendants of the Golden Horde backlerbek, Edige. In the presented work, an attempt is made to clarify the features of the status of noble Nogai immigrants in the Moscow state and how it was influenced by changes in the relationship between the Nogai Horde and the Orthodox monarchs. Research materials: Archives of central Moscow orders and previous historiography on this topic. Results and scientific novelty of the study: It is assumed that starting from the middle of the 16th century, according to Moscow sources, the Mangyt state was subject to the Russian tsars. This happened when Nogai turned to Ivan IV for investiture of the beys. In the steppe they looked at this somewhat differently, and considered this step as the conclusion of some kind of temporary agreement and alliance. However, the gradual degradation of statehood in the Nogai Horde and the inflexible position of Moscow led to the fact that this formation and the people who inhabited it began to become increasingly dependent on the will of the Russian monarchs with each passing decade. As a result, the status of the Mangyt clan nobility evolved from the position of children and grandchildren of natural sovereigns (who entered the service of the monarch of a neighboring state) to ordinary citizenship with compulsory service, like all the nobility under Peter I.
