      I’d say 90s - no USSR but Yugoslavia is still on the map

        The USSR is on the map - that big greenish thing in the east …

          It doesn’t say USSR, it’s divided into Ukraine, Belarus and Lithuania.

              I’d say that’s exactly when this map was made. Before the official reuninification but when the USSR was already falling apart, with these countries quickly becoming separate.

              It’s not a very good map no matter the exact time period

                the countries were always separate within the union, it was a federation. they had their own flags and languages.

                  Not really, they had separate flags but in reality they were completely subordinate to the central government. Local languages such as Ukrainian and Lithuanian were repressed.

                  Also they were named “Lituanian SSR” or “Ukrainian SSR” unlike on the map.
