Actually, never mind. I just noticed a flaw in the map that I've overlooked. I don't think anyone wants to stop the game to make a new map on my account, so I'll do the best I can...and curse the mapmaker.
There were one or two instances of this, we discussed it awhile back. I was rather constrained trying to keep things mostly even and symetrical looking at the same time trying to work within the confines of this very cramped map, difficult to do sometimes, since random maps are completely uneven. You'll notice the provinces are smaller in the south, and so forth. Not that big of a deal if you coordinate with your nearest neighbor (on who get its). In one instance there is an intervening mountain province. With the larger map in the next game, it won't be an issue. So don't curse me.
