The
map
above
shows
a
brief
comparison
between
the
Soviet
Union
in
1990
and
Russia
in
2025.
The
GDP
numbers
for
1990
come
from
the
1990
edition
of
the
CIA
World
Factbook,
which
noted
that:
“1989
est.
based
on
Soviet
statistics;
cutbacks
in
Soviet
reporting
on
products
included
in
sample
make
the
estimate
subject
to
greater
uncertainty
than
in
earlier
years.”
And
the
number
for
2025
come
from
IMF.
Both
are
based
on
nominal
GDP
at
exchange
rates
rather
than
$
PPP.
Overall,
if
you
add
up
the
economies
of
the
15
former
Soviet
States
you
get
a
total
GDP
of
$3,359.8
Billion
and
GDP
per
capita
of
$11,245.
