Guess the Map III: The Map Lover's Paradise

[History_Buff]

Spot on. That's one of the early maps from the recent GOCE mission.

 

[Brian Shanahan]

! Countries contributing troops to the Afghanistan war.

Ireland didn't contribute troops to the war. After the invasion suceeded some Gardaí (cops in Irish) went over to train the Afghani police force, and we (as usual) allowed American fly-overs and stops in Shannon, but no troops.

Dammit I was thinking something along the lines of geoids (India).

[madviking]

Does it have to with protests?

 

[carmen510]

Is the map related to health issues?

 

[aukrest]

Anything to do with relations/trade/alliances with Russia?

 

[amadeus]

Pyramid schemes?

 

[emzie]

Nothing yet. As a hint, darker is a higher percentage. The yellow means negligible and white no data. Grey is unsurveyed.

 

[madviking]

%age muslims?

 

[emzie]

%age muslims?

I think Turkey would be pretty darkly coloured in that case.

 

[carmen510]

I was going to say prevalence of Communist parties, but in that case, France would definitely be colored in.

 

[madviking]

Ohhhhh Turkey is included?

Derp.

 

[emzie]

Ohhhhh Turkey is included?

Derp.

As "no data"

According to what I'm reading Ireland contributed 7 troops.

 

[dwaxe]

% Orthodox Christians?

 

[Racsoviale]

Percentage of population yearning for the glory days of the Iron Curtain

 

[Terxpahseyton]

% Orthodox Christians?

Greece?

I think Turkey would be pretty darkly coloured in that case.

Turkey is not survived. What makes this map suck is that the supposed yellow and white are very similar. But moving back my screen in a flatter position helped a lot.

Percentage of bearably usable infrastructure?
Of homes without permanent access to power?
Of homes without permanent access to flowing water?

 

[Dreadnought]

High % of people without access to railroads? Or cars?

Maybe something with human trafficking...

 

[emzie]

Nothing close yet. It's, I guess, related to infrastructure. The map is tracking an illegal or unregulated version of something common across Europe -- that is, the yellow countries have a legitimate version of what's being measured.
