Thanks, guys.

I didn't know about the Nation Overview cut-off, so I'll prune the map quite a bit. There are lots of provinces I can combine, some that can be removed and otherwise optimized, so I suppose it'll be around 350 when I'm done. That'll also distribute them a bit more evenly around the map.

Gandalf, I took a quick look at your page, and it was quite nice. Well thought out and easy to read without any extra fluff. Me likey.

All right, update on this map: I've finally got the targa file finished and all the provinces placed. And boy do you gous not want to know just how much of a ***** and a half that job was, getting all of them in place, hunting out all the extra white pixels (Whee, the glaciers were fun - NOT!) and checking that they actually looked good in the map editor too. Turns out there are a grand total of around 427 provinces, maybe a couple less, so expect the map file to be ready in another two weeks or thereabouts.
