Etymology
From Ottoman Turkish اولوس (ulus), from a Mongolic source, compare Mongolian улс (uls, “state, country”), from Old Uyghur 𐽰𐽳𐾁𐽳𐽿 (uluš, “country, realm”) which is likely related to Old Uyghur 𐽰𐽳𐽶𐾁𐽰𐽿𐽹𐽰𐽷 (üleš-, “allot, to separate”), therefore from Proto-Turkic *üle- (“to divide, distribute, endow”). see more at üleş and üleşmek. Cognate with Azerbaijani ulus.
