Hi @Libeccio-DD, thanks for the pull.
It looks good. Do remember that provinces don't always need to correspond to their historical counterparts, there's quite a few exceptions. It's also good practice to avoid splitting terrain - have a province half inside mountains, half inside plains. It's not a problem here but since you mentioned you want to do a few more, keep that in mind please.
Unfortunately, I changed the map in Ghana and Ivory coast before accepting this commit, so I'm afraid there will be incompatibility. So I either need original map for this to apply the changes myself or you need to implement the changes of the latest version in this map/pull. Sorry about that.

Correction: grab the latest development branch version, since cd12d7f introduced other map changes to Burma. Again, sorry about that. Dumb me: I have access to your new map and it's easier for me to do it. I will take a look so I can merge it as soon as I have the time. |
Changed the borders of all the provinces in the states Hudavendigar and Aydin as well as the provinces Eskishehir and Afyon to look closer to the historical borders of the administrative divisions of the Ottoman Empire. I plan on changing the borders of the rest of the Anatolian provinces but Eskishehir might prove a bit of a problem because the vast majority of the province's area was actually part of the the Ankara vilayet while the remaining left part which included the city Eskishehir belonged to the Hudavendigar.
