I finally updated my world map to fit in some corrections, as well as info
from Target: Smuggler Havens. I had to guess a bit in places, as the map in
T:SH is really off. It is missing Kazakhstan and several major northern
Russian islands. It also has Trans-Polar Aleut going into some weird places
where there really shouldn't even be land! Anyway, I think the end result is
OK.

Among the changes:

o Unified Korea
o Changed some of the Chinese nations to Manchuria
o Added Yakut
o Added Wit Afrika
o Changed border of TPA
o Added two more colors
o Made state borders dark grey instead of black
o Changed name of Italy and Japan

The map is now available in three different ways. All of these files are at
ftp://thor.flashpt.com/pub/progress. The three files are:

World.pdf: The map on a big single page. Useful to reduce when printing, or
use on-screen
WorldLetter.pdf: The map tiled across four U.S. Letter-sized pages. The
first page looks like its missing some stuff, but the missing bits are
overlapped onto the second page.
WorldA4.pdf: As WorldLetter, but tiled across A4 paper.
