I suspect mostly not. Maybe Transdnistrian ones. There must be a company selling globes that pander to arbitrary political preferences (Taiwan same color as PRC, France same color as the ocean, Texas larger than Alaska, that sort of thing).

Given that the name of the Dniester comes from an Iranian language (it sez here…) I think that makes Transdnistria the westernmost country with an Iranian name. (i.e. the language subfamily, not modern Persian.)
