If you want to send me a sketch (based off the map) of names of areas that I can put into provinces I am more than willing to accept it. I like the more provinces (Just a few I don't want it over 200ish because I don't like superhuge maps, if I could get it to about 170-190 would be fine, including water provinces). Send me a PM or Email to discuss more details.

If anything, I think it had too many water provinces. Almost every coastal province has its own adjacent water province, and then there are the "normal" water provinces too. The geography of the water is just a little odd.

I'm not a fan of giant maps so adding more provinces doesn't do much for me

The water provinces are a bit irregular in the way some of them allow sailors hardly any coastal advantage, and Scandinavian sailors will only be able to reach Brittain from Denmark (not Norway), but then by comparison the Black Sea is all one province with many coastal provinces all around. If these were designed with another game system in mind (perhaps it has unlimited sea movement?), that may explain it.

Sort of interesting anyway, but might be best adjusted with such things in mind.

I don't know if I want to attempt a sketch, but your division of Ireland into 3 parts is, eh, not the best idea. Ireland (a subject dear to me since that's where I'm from) would be better divided into its historical 4 provinces: Ulster, Leinster, Munster, and Connaught. Like I said, I'm not sure I want to attempt a sketch, but a picture, even Online, showing the divisions should be really easy to find. If I find a good picture I'll post the link.
