There is a small small globe right beside my notebook computer.
The size is about a female hand and it was 100 yen (about one dollar) in a Japanese version dollar store. In these days, I also got a normal-size (about 25 cm - 10 inch in diameter) globe from a friend.
The small globe is made after the dissolution of the Soviet Union, so it shows the countries Russia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania ... etc, but the bigger globe is made before the dissolution, so it shows the name "Union of Soviet Socialist Republics."
These two globes shows one aspect of how the world had changed before and after the dissolution of the Soviet.
