I presume one would do county for Ireland.
Their choice of "province" is weird. They use the newfangled administrative regions for France and Italy (to which there is little allegiance), but sub-Land divisions for Germany (where the Lander have important powers)Last edited by ursus arctos; 04-06-2021, 19:52.

Top Right, click on "Add Layer" first
Click on the layer you want (there are 3 pages that can be toggled at the top...it will turn the green plus sign to a red minus sign, which will be the only way you know it's loaded)
Close the layer menu with the x in the top right
You will see a bunch of colors, then click on "legend" in the top right next to "layers" to see the, uhhhhh, legend.

The major crops and regions and tonnage produced of any state in every country in the world, or most countries. Or a lot of countries. Or countries that grow something. Or something.
(This was part of the lesson plan that got me my National Geographic Certified Educator certification. We show how the climate zones impact the crops grown in a particular region. For instance, rice grows in the south of .py which is a humid temperate region - no dry season, whilst peanuts grow in the drier parts in the Chaco in the occidental region. Then we compare the crop to a similar one in another country, and see if it needs a similar climate to grow.)

Someone on Reddit has put a lot of effort into the backstory behind this, where contemporary England never unites, but essentially remains on Heptarchic lines, with the northern kingdoms Norse influenced, Anglia and London speaking modern English, Middle English dominant in the Midlands, and the West Country a buffer zone. Meanwhile, Ireland, Scotland and Wales are all monoglot Celts:
