What is present day condition of USSR?

The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics dissolved for good on December 25, 1991, breaking into its constituent republics: the European republics of Belarus, Ukraine, and Moldova; the trans-Caucasus republics of Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Georgia; the trans-Uralic republics of Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Kazakhstan; the Baltic republics of Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia; and the huge multi-ethnic, trans-continental republic of the Russian Federation. These nations still exist, recognizing the same borders that divided them as SSRs, although there are political tensions within and between these nations that may cause future changes in the geography of the area, for example in Chechnya (within the Russian Federation), between Armenia and Azerbaijan in Nagorno-Karabakh, and between Georgia and the Russian Federation in Abkhazia and South Ossetia.
