Gag Law in Action: Kremlin Surprised by Estonian Move to Shun Russian Media
The Russian-language globes feature Moscow and Eurasia is shown as a single continent. 

In the Estonian versions Russia is not shown at all, while Eurasia is divided into Europe and Asia as two separate continents, Postimees online newspaper wrote.
