That's 3-5 key-presses for every single province you want to visit - that gets annoying real fast. You have to either remember the province numbers (which doesn't work for PBeM games which you'll only play a few turns of every week - intermixed with other Dominions 2 games.) or you have to open the nation overview to look them up, adding a minimum of two more key-presses (and a context-switch) - not to mention that you can't even scroll through all the provinces in the nation overview with the keyboard at the moment.
In UI design stuff like an extra keypress or context-switch matters a great deal.
