Part two, in 15 chapters, is devoted to the Soviet Socialist Republic of Turkmenistan. The chapters cover such topics as the history, geography and topography, administrative divisions and population centers, agriculture, irrigation, transport, industry, vegetation and wildlife, and the size, ethnic composition, and distribution of the population of the republic.
