Uzbeks are not "found," they live in other countries. Improper or outdated, non-neutral tone.

The second sentence of this article treats the subject of the article, i.e. the Uzbek people, as something to be found. It states: "They comprise the majority population of Uzbekistan but are also found as a minority group in: Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, Russia, and China." Found by whom? This is not written in a neutral language; instead, it applies a discoverer/the discovered perspective and uses outdated language which is inappropriate when discussing a group of people, especially in this case because the article then proceeds to describe the Uzbek peoples' history and international relations spanning thousands of years. A more proper and concise way to convey the idea that Uzbeks live elsewhere as a minority group is just to say "live," like this: "They comprise the majority population of Uzbekistan but also live as a minority group in Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, Russia, and China." No colon needed either.
