Would it sound similar like saying hurricane about to hit Cuba, Florida and Dominican Republic. This does not imply that Florida is a country is just more precise location definition than saying USA. Same here with Kaliningrad as part of Russia.
- gdy 4y agoFlorida is a state, Kaliningrad isn't even an autonomous oblast.
- vincnetas 4y agoIt kinda is oblast : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaliningrad_Oblast https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaliningrad_Oblast
- gdy 4y agoYes, but oblast has the smallest amount of autonomy. It's like a county in the GB or the US.
- thriftwy 4y agoTraditionally, raion is a county-level subdivision, though these are now superceded by settlements (communes). Oblast' is a top-level federation subject, comprised of these. Its's true that they are usually smaller and less authonomous than U. S. states.
