it's called the Fergana Valley. the countries are mountains then dip into a valley with rivers in it so it's good for farming. they drew the borders based on the ethnic groups there, Tajiks are mostly in the Pamir and Zarafshan mountain range, Kyrgyzstan is in the Alay, Fergana and Tian Shan mountain range. Uzbekistan is all a flat plain but all 3 countries are in the Fergana Valley and that's where they're cockblocking each other.
