This can be quite tricky. Most people in Australia support mandatory detention, for instance (which all political parties also support except for the Greens, but they're communists) but what Masada was talking about were decisions made by ASIO (our FBI), which, as he said, our courts aren't allowed to see, let alone the public.

I put in all of the G20 powers, and it looked weird that to have France, Germany, and Italy in the middle of the EU, while the EU was weakened quite a bit without them.
I also wanted all of the nuclear powers, bringing in NK, Pakistan, and Israel.
Britain was combined with New Zealand, New Guinea, and the other Commonwealth realms to give Britain more influence.
Venezuela and Cuba were added on account of both being Communist countries in the Americas that dislike the USA.
Iran was added because of how much news there is about it. Afghanistan was included to have a challenge and to help keep Iran in check.
Kazakhstan (et all) was included to help round things out to 31 nations.
ASEAN + Taiwan was included to give the RoC some help. I don't want Taiwan to be doomed to a time of inadequacy.
Caucasia was included simply because that region fascinates me.
Africa was split up the way it was because I didn't want the UN to own almost all of Africa and leave South Africa screwed. I figure basing it on government styles would work, but basing it off of regions could work just as well. I don't think there is a 'right way' of separating Africa in a Present Day Earth scenario.

But some ways are better than others
Oh, and BTW, Belarus, Moldova, and Iceland aren't members of the EU. Greenland also isn't really an EU member, even though Denmark is. And Suriname certainly isn't a part of the EU. 
And you've made mistakes both ways- Slovenia, which is part of the "Random Everyone Else" civilization is a part of the EU, and Croatia will be next year. I'll just ignore all the random islands that I assume you've forgotten to color in.

Suriname is coloured in the EU colour because Cayenne's culture border covers Suriname, and they'd just culture flip to either the EU or Venezuela.
Iceland + Moldova is put under the UN, while Ljubljana is put under EU control. Belarus wouldn't be able to fit between G'dansk and St. Petersburg.
Greenland will stay with the EU because it seems odd for the colony to be separate from the mother country.

Didn't you use to live in Sydney?

Did you make that? I like that a lot.
Ewww no.
Oh, you're so hardheaded!
If I could, I'd move to Sydney in a heartbeat. 
That's a map of Sydney. Coastal colonial towns are always enchanting.
Sydney's okay for a visit, I guess (though we got robbed the last time I was there).
Melbourne combines the charm of a coastal colonial town with a calm, sophisticated cosmopolitanism.
