Turkmenistan a
Turkic country in
Central Asia. Until 1991, it was a constituent republic of the
Soviet Union, the
Turkmen Soviet Socialist Republic (Turkmen SSR). It is bordered by
Afghanistan to the southeast,
Iran to the southwest,
Uzbekistan to the northeast,
Kazakhstan to the northwest, and the
Caspian Sea to the west. The name Turkmenistan derives from
Persian, meaning "land of the
Turkmen". The name of its capital,
Ashgabat, means "the City of
Arsaces"
in Persian. It also loosely translates as "the city of love" or "the
city that love built", derived in folk etymology from the Arabic
ishq for "love" with the Persian suffix
abad for "inhabited" or "built".
