Fixed. It was originally Amsterdam, but I was experimenting with resolving ambiguous capitals by using the de facto seat of government, based on other feedback here (e.g. South Africa originally had multiple capitals). I've switched back to the more familiar atlas capital in ambiguous cases.


Excellent point. I've removed Vatican City from the map for now, as it is entirely enclosed by another capital city (Rome) and so its Voronoi cell will be tiny.


I've updated the map to use only one de facto capital city per region.

Yes, it was announced on the (relatively brief) live stream.


Thanks, is there a better link then that would let someone not up to speed understand the announcement and significance?
