that map would be more amusing with colour graduations instead of black and white boob/butt splits.

I think

I'm kinda, like, guessing. ;)

Add to the map: The Land Beyond the Forest (Transylvania), Mountain Land (Muntenia), Land Around the Olt River (Oltenia) and Land Ruled by the Ban (Banat), though these are not particularly original.

Interesting, but Portuguese is spoken by roughly 250 million people, of which 200 million in Brazil, 21 million in Angola, 25 million in Mozambique and 10 million in Portugal.
