OFFICIAL NAMES OF CIS, YUGOSLAVIA AND CZECHOSLOVAKIA
1. I have checked your list with Research and Analysis Department. Your list of CIS states is correct except for the following minor points: Republic of Kyrgyzstan (not Kirgizstan); Turkmenistan (not Republic of Turkmenistan); Ukraine (not Republic of Ukraine).
2. Czechoslovakia is still the Czech and Slovak Federal Republic.
3. Yugoslavia is now considered to be four entities:
a) Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina
b) Republic of Croatia
c) Republic of Slovenia
d) Federal Republic of Yugoslavia
Hope this is useful.
