Which of the below do you guys think is a better representation of a subdivision border reform (like the Indian one 1956, or the Soviet national deliminitation)?

Top showing the borders of the states of the Turkestani Federation before the reorganisation with the colours showing post-reorganisation states, while the bottom shows the former states in colours with borders showing the post-reorganisation states.
The pre-reorganisation states are: State of the Turkmen and the Uzbek, State of Samarkand, State of Fergana, State of Uyghuristan, State of Jetisu (Semirechye) and State of Syr-Darya
The post reorganisation states are: State of Turkmenistan, State of Uzbekistan, State of Tajikistan, State of Uyghuristan, State of Kyrgyzstan, State of Jetisu, State of Syr-Darya and State of Karakalpakstan (which I am considering raneming Aral or Ustyurt)
(Looking at it now I think I like the second map better, but I still would like second opinions. Maybe I should have made the borders on the top red instead of light grey as well.)
