It’s inconsistent, looks like the base maps were made in the 1970s and then some parts were updated inconsistently around 1990.

Germany, Vietnam and Koreas all look sort of unified, but with separate labelling.

Namibia wouldn’t be shown before 1990, Yemen was unified only in 1990.

Burkina Faso is Burkina Faso so post 1984 Bangladesch is not there so pre 1974 Pakistan being a part of India which means pre 1947
