Is this location dependent? In other words do you only see this if you’re using your phone in a particular region?

On my device, I’m seeing “Crimea, Ukraine” when I search for it. The border with other parts of Ukraine also looks like a border for national subdivisions as it fades when zooming out.

It’s location-dependent. Crimea is shown as within Russia’s boundaries only “when viewed from Russia”.
