Comments[edit]

Should this be translated as "Federated" instead of "Federative"? "Federated" is much more common, for instance by philatelic authorities, and the US State Dept also says "Federated" in its capsule history of Azerbaijan. Stan 15:54 Apr 26, 2003 (UTC)

I've seen Federative, Federal, and Federated. I'll let you pick. I have no preference. Danny

Federative is the closest cognate to the official Russian name. Monomoit (talk) 15:34, 5 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Article moved[edit]

I've changed the name of this article from Transcaucasian Federative Soviet Socialist Republic to Transcaucasian Soviet Federated Socialist Republic, as in noted in Encarta [1] and Britannica [2]. --Cantus 18:10, 7 Jul 2004 (UTC)

When did this article get moved back to the abbreviation, then? All other Soviet republic names have been moved to their full spelling (i.e. RSFSR = "Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic"). This article should be similarly moved. Bry9000 (talk) 23:14, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

User Sesel claims here that this article is now correctly named Transcaucasian Socialist Federative Soviet Republic: the word order in the name of this country should be "Socialist" first, "Soviet" second, because that's the order that was used prior to 1937. (After 1937, Soviet republics had the word "Soviet" first, and "Socialist" second, i.e. Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic.) Because the TSFSR was disbanded in 1936, Sesel says, the old word order should apply here. Bry9000 (talk) 21:30, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Loose ends[edit]

Presumably the word-order question has been settled in favor of Socialist-before-Soviet. Given this, the native-language names for this federative republic should be in this preferred order, (except when illustrating the deprecated Soviet-before-Socialist usage). Yet the Cyrillic names (and presumably the non-Cyrillic ones) are presented using the deprecated word order. Did someone forget to fix these when the name of the page was changed?

Map[edit]

Someone needs to fix the map - it should have proper 1922 borders. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.202.98.47 (talk • contribs) 02:49, 10 August 2006

It doesn't look that bad to me. The main problem seems to be North/South Korea. I'm also not sure East Prussia is large enough, but that's rather peripheral (as is Korea, I suppose). On the other hand, it does have the Tuvinian People's Republic in its proper location. This includes details on the republics and their borders. -David Schaich ^Talk/_Cont 03:05, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I fixed it. Korea is united, East Prussia and Germany are bigger. Poland's borders are fixed. Lithuania is smaller. -- Clevelander 23:56, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

yeah it looks much better now, still there are problems though: Ukraine and Belarus should be a little smaller, their western parts are supposed to belong to Poland. See this map for reference: http://www.hawaii.edu/powerkills/WF4.USSR.21TO29.JPG

Okay, how does it look now? -- Clevelander 01:44, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Looks great. :) The only inaccuracy that I can still see is the absence of People's Republic of Khorezm and People's Republic of Bokhara in Central Asia, but those are not vital I think. -- Kami888

Abkhazian SSR ?[edit]

Shouldn't Abkhazian SSR be mentioned as one of the constituent republics? At least according to present wikipedia article on Abkhazian SSR it was a constituent republic of Transcaucasia until 1931. I have read elsewhere that Abkhazia was under the RSFSR until 1931. Some other sources claim that Abkhazia was never anything more than Abkhazian ASSR.212.50.147.101 17:17, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Pronounced[edit]

Please write how it is pronounced in Georgian and Armenian. --89.178.117.147 (talk) 04:32, 3 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Transcaucasian Regional Committee[edit]

The main executive authority(government) was Zakkraykom - "Заккрайком"(ЗАКавказский КРАЕвой КОМитет РКП(б)/ВКП(б) ) - Transcaucasian Regional Committee of the Russian Communist Party (Bolsheviks)/The All-Union Communist Party (Bolsheviks).

In the article there is not a word about his leaders - the first secretaries of Zakkraikom - Sergo Ordzhonikidze, Mamia Orakhelashvili, Alexander Krinitsky, Vissarion Lominadze, Lavrentiy Kartvelishvili and Lavrentiy Beria. In fact, the article on public education without specifying its leaders. sorry for my google-english.Libra88 (talk) 15:09, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
