Well, if your map is from before 1990 and after 1921, it probably stands for "Soviet Socialist Republic" After the Russian Revolution in 1917, the Russian Emperor was deposed and shot but Russia continued to maintain an empire. Each of its areas was called a Soviet Socialist Republic, such as the Ukrainian SSR, the Georgian SSR, the Uzbekh SSR and so on. The whole was called the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) or Soviet Union. When the Soviet Union fell, each one of those SSRs became its own country, and Russia became Russia.
