Seneca. Although I live close to Niagara. I am surprised I am not the first person in the province so far.
The map is basically the provinces.bmp game file modified, so my resolution depends on that of the file. Thinking about it *maybe* there is a way I could effectively double the resolution, might try that in the future (would also solve the problem of very small island difficult to spot/see their color). For now though I'll keep it like this.
Provinces.bmp is 5632 times 2048 pixels; the map which has been posted is far from that.
Oh I hadn't noticed! Either @Romaoplays scaled it down when uploading or the forum did. Here, this is the unmodified file that I sent him, it's 5932x2048 as it should (it's 300px wider than provinces.bmp due to a small bug in the program that I still have to fix, but it's 300px of nothing): https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B2Fwk8v5F2UZeHFxQTZsd1RYTkE
Yes, that is has been done, see for instance the north american lakes in this picture, which were gray in the older one (in case you're wondering why those little islands near alaska are not on map, it's because this is a map of the North America superregion and they are, for some reason, in the oceania super region):

There's nothing hindering the picture being uploaded full size to the fora. So it's either the OP deliberately uploading a lower resolution version or whatever he uses to host which downscales it.
The fora does not downscale picture---ever. Or rather they can be showed downscaled, but then you can always click on them to get full scale.
He could try uploaded directly to the fora.
Also what about including some legend showing how many people the different colours represent? Like in the old map.
Due to some events or something like that. Or some flags. The same reason that the map is divided into areas and regions too; just on the largest scale. There has always been continent size regions; even before states were introduced. Back then they just overlapped most of the time.
I for instance think that the Asia super region was what was used to decide who you got that aweome expansion ideas finisher CB against.
