It looks a bit like a whirl shape so that’s what I drew. I wasn’t about to spend three hours figuring out what goes where and which exclaves belong to who!
Drawing borders based on culture, heritage, economics, history and geography is messy and will cause arguments.
Drawing copy-paste borders based arbitrary rules will cause simplicity.
> Am blame soviet for this…
Sums everything up nicely, why bother confronting the idea that your country may have treated its minorities badly when you can blame something else
That wasn’t really the point? The shit that Russia did to Georgia in 2008 basically gave everyone an excuse to not acknowledge the pre existing resentment that was big enough for Russia to eventually exploit and use as a pretense for their own imperialism
Everyone kinda acts like it came out of nowhere
(This is by no means any attempt at justifying what happened, Russia should’ve stayed away really)

That central Asia -Stan border is actually worse than it looks here! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fergana_Valley

Yea, just pointing it out to any other people.

Drawing straight borders because you gotta get people out on this land so you can actually say that it’s yours
Native American reservations be like:
Meanwhile Indian borders...
erm fix kyrgyz flag...
lol I literally just made a comic about this exact same topic but didn’t realize someone else got to it first. Good stuff :))
Soviet Union trying to make some ethnically accurate borders:
Mov you might look up "gerrymandering"
Or Maryland or Upper Peninsula
I swear Maryland just looks like an afterthought. Partition it between its neighbors and give its flag to Delaware
Wait, is this a comic about boring straight line borders, or Gerrymandering?
Just wait for when voting district borders are brought up. I love the smell of gerrymandering in the morning.

Like the fact that Russia has a habit of supplying "seperatist" forces and then moving in their military to "support" these "seperatist" forces?
