May I suggest adding the data for [[:Category:New Brunswick]], [[:Category:Nova Scotia]] & [[:Category:Prince Edward Island]] next?  They have their own maps on the category pages, so would be easy to add.  [[:Category:Rhode Island]] would be easy too. :)

:Sure, but I really like recognizable shapes, so I'd first create a map of Canada (as the toplevel region) and then add its subregions bit by bit. I see that Robyn has created a map for [[User:Robyn/British_Columbia|British Columbia]] as well, so we already have 5 of 13 in easily convertible format... we can make the subregions as small as anyone likes (e.g. Australia:ACT is only two grats), but I'd like to make the regions large enough so that you know which part of the world you're looking at without knowing the URL. That said, I'm not very satisfied with Germany, because it looks quite distorted (due to its average latitude of 50N)... I'll build a Europe map soon, I guess.
