They sure be takin isolationism to the max when it comes to international relations it seems. (I am in no means certain the actual reasoning, I'm completely ignorant)

Yeah, I think they first saw joining the UN as taking a side, and when they realised everyone but them had joined it didn't have a point anymore.

Bougainville on the other hand will be independent by 2027

former Soviet states like Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, etc also joined in 1992, did they miss the cutoff somehow for this quiz?

I checked out the exact day of accession. Yes, 20 is a totally arbitrary cut-off.

I wasted a lot of time typing in these former USSR countries too, either all of the 1992 countries should be included or none.

It’s top 20 not “everything after 1992” (inc or exc)

This is a mix of dissolution of larger countries, ex-communist countries, island countries getting independence, and stubbornly neutral countries.
