*A wild Spaniard appeared*

Oh yeah that's a good one :) and thanks, the researches where pretty extensive but worth.

But, I'm sorry if this 'representation' is making here and there an odd impression.
Well, the "Franja" is thought as a strategical North-South-connection/West-East-separation.
The decission for "Iberian East" is based on the incompleteness of Spain(the appropriate capital isn't included)
in combination with the Principality of Andorra.
(Due to the SVG-limit - Otherwise the map name would have become Madrid-Moskva)
Of course, the Valencia-CatalanC. thing can be fixed till the publication.

This map looks GREAT! I love having cities in Diplo games. And this map has a lot.

My only suggestion would be to make countries a certain color. EX: All of Britain's bonuses be blue so that all of the territories are outlined in blue color.

Edit: Also maybe put the cities with the Super country bonus. EX: the city of London is not in the GreatBritianAndIsles bonus

Here's the current upload: https://www.warlight.net/SinglePlayer?PreviewMap=44998
Connections and bonus colouring - now all 362 are shown with a bit recolouring - are done.
I was also able to add some planned decorations - unfortunately the cities coat of arms and geographic/aquatic nominations still can't be shown due to the file size limit (ultimate maximum nearly reached I guess).
(The Spain-related issues won't be forget)
My only suggestion would be to make countries a certain color...
Edit:Also maybe put the cities with the Super country bonus.

Oh already, done. maybe these transitional colours are ok ,too.
An affiliation of the cities is a good question. In the upcoming tests (soon testers will be needed) it should work out, how the balance is the best.

Hmm maybe i'll give an example (https://www.warlight.net/Play?PreviewMap=38883).

Your Germany is many different colors: Purple Green Blue Brown but in that one Germany (The Holy Roman Empire) is all some sort of black or grey so you can tell it apart from neighboring countries.

so all of your countries don't have to all have their own unique color but their shouldn't be two red countries next to each other.

Also you don't have to do this but a lot of people have Country pride and want their country to be a color. Like Netherlands is orange. You can get an idea on what the colors are by looking at other Europe Maps

Reminds me of Paris-St. Petersburg.

The strategic bonuses I don't understand why they are implemented, and make each country a different colored bonus. Very nice idea.

Maybe because it's his map, too.

And about the Spanish issues, I think I got what you wanted to do, I will respect your decisions. And a suggestion to replace the "Catalan countries", it could be called "Catalan-speaking regions" or "Catalan-speaking Spain" as the Rousillon isn't included, for example, and saying Catalan-speaking instead of Catalan might reduce Valencia's issue. Thanks for listening me :)

Thanks for your understanding
By the way nice suggestions to realize.
I for example thought of CatalanValencianSpain/East but "Catalan-speaking Spain" even better roll off the tongue.

The strategic bonuses I don't understand why they are implemented..

Guessing you mean the ones in the "background":
The latin strategic bonuses should be some kind of checkpoint stretching over the superbonus areas.
In the cities - depending on their size - the additional bonuses should make it more complex to conquer them.
The traditional/historical bonuses (like Brabant-Limburg) will be mainly relevant for some distribution modes I'm going to make.
In the last two cases their value ranges between 1 and 2.

Already pending public this week.
After two times of trying to make it public,
I guess bonuses are big enough now for the map to fulfill the requirements(Thu).
Apparantly it will just need some time.

I got this message...
This map, Metreoque London-Moskva version 2.0 develop dupo-doubled, doesn't seem to meet all of the requirements. [...]It must be possible to determine all territory connections just by looking at the map. This isn't possible on this map for two reasons:

1. A player can't tell where each sub-region exists within the main region just by looking. You should be able to easily correct this by drawing lines/arrows, or just writing the names of each sub-region on the main map.
2. Territories that are split: Imagine a player is looking at the bottom half of Elets-Don. They would have no way of telling that it also connects to Kasimov-Oka, since they don't even come close to touching. Split territories should be split into two seperate territories, or the map must be changed to show that they're one territory.

I'm surprised (not sure what's the problem with 1.) also I've never read in the wiki that splitted territories aren't possible...

There's a way to join two territories, but i'm not sure what it is, look on this map at the borders on Berlin: https://www.warlight.net/Play?PreviewMap=45901

Just a small thing I realised is that Klosterneuburg is actually not a part of Vienna...

Thx that's ok.
The reason for excluding Klosterneuburg is because it's a former district like Fiumicino(Rome).

Also,
maybe I should just retry with the map like it is, if splitted territories seem to be usually common ..?

What is the starting lvl to play this one at because there are some good maps but most players who would like to play those maps do not have enough lvl to play them.
