'Central Asia' is much bigger than post-Soviet Asian republics accroding to Western geographers. In Russian they call the republics 'Middle Asia' to translate it literally. Since 'Middle Asia' is not (yet?) in the English language, I suggest that it should be 'the ex-Soviet Asia' or similar in meaning. Thanks for 'observation deck'. I couldn't find this word combination in English-Russian dictionaries.
