Well here's a another small update. Mostly I added Spain's colors and more of the Landing zones. I tightened up the borders and changed some of those Anachronisms (I kept Namibia because "German South West Africa" is
just too long to fit).
it's unclear that guinea bissau is part of the portugal bonus. i believe it was called portuguese guinea at the time.
I think it should be more clear now that it has the flag.
orientale and kivu can usefully be merged with one of its neighbours to form stanleyville, to make belgian congo easier to hold, so that the belgian player doesn't have such a difficult time. there's also no need to split madagascar into north and south.

hmm, hmm, this could be done, however I would need to lower the bonus appropriately. It would be pretty hard to hold as is. I will ponder this, and would appreciate it if anyone else else who had an opinion on the matter could chime in.
call the africa region bonus the africa colony bonus instead (colony bonus with european power), since this is colonial africa.
ok, I went ahead and did that.
some names are anachronistic: somalia was somaliland, tanzania was tanganyika and namibia was german south west africa.
All except South West German Africa fixed (for the above mentioned reason)
no map of colonial africa is complete without the two boer republics (orange free state and south african republic). what u have as south africa was cape colony (british), natal (british - u've called it zululand), orange free state (boer) and south african republic (boer). because of the boer legacy of apartheid, which dominated almost any western discussion of african politics in the 20th century, it will be a great pity to miss the chance to include these countries on a cc map for only the second time (on industrial helix's south africa map, the colonial context isn't so obvious).
I admit that I don't really know much about this. From what I looked at online it predates the period of time in which this map is to depict. Granted that it is a general period of time and I have fibbed a few historical accuracies already but I don't know how those 2 countries would fit into the current gameplay structure?
