Also, irregular tile (province) geometry and variable numbers of neighbors per province make it more of a discrete or statistical problem that might have some difficulty being modeled with a simple polynomial function.

Thanks. Obviously, its n(t). But that doesn't change the fact that is a lower order than r2 - which essentially is what my point was.
