I call this the soft belly of the World

This is where empires are born and die.
A land of wild, empty deserts, plains or steppes where thriving islands of civilisation can be found here and there.
Yesterday ruled by Mongols, Arabs, Persians, Turks, Manchus or Tatars. Today by Al-qaeda, ISIS, warlords, oil companies, drug cartels and superpowers.

"Ukraine" means "The border" so you are pretty much part of this soft belly, as proved by the recent war.
