Take your pick:
- an enemy occupied zone (East Germany to West Germans, even after the	
East German government was nominally established)
- a 'strange object' ['Gebilde'] (ditto)
- a breakaway province (China about Taiwan)
- a figment of imperialist machinations (China about an independent 
Tibet)
- a capitalist puppet regime (North Korea about South Korea)
- the result of Western-Zionist conspiracy (Arabs about Israel)
- a terrorist territory (Russia about Chechnya)
etc.etc.
