Guess the Map IV: A Thousand Cries for "Hint Please!"

[say1988]

New Jersey, Alaska, and California, appear to not fit that.

 

[Tee Kay]

Historic places?

 

[TheMulattoMaker]

For clarification (maybe I'm the only one that needs it): "Most" to "least" is dark green - green - light green - yellow - beige. Right?

...battles fought?

 

[dwaxe]

That color scheme looks familiar...education level of state legislatives?

On the right track, but you'll have to be more specific.

 

[say1988]

Proportion of legislators with graduate degrees. New Jersey is number 1 at 60%.

Indeed.

New map?

 

[Optical]

It's been 24 hours...

I got nothing, but by the rules anyone can now post a map.

 

[NedimNapoleon]

I got one, in a few minutes

Jamaica is gray

 

[uat2d]

Is it related to drugs?

 

[classical_hero]

If Jamaica is Grey, I doubt it,

 

[NedimNapoleon]

It's not related to drugs

Gray means none of x or no info

 

[Terxpahseyton]

Except for the USA whatever it is it seems relatively geographically continuous. So my first guess would be something related to flora or fauna.

 

[uat2d]

If Jamaica is Grey, I doubt it,

I was thinking more about drug related punishments

 

[NedimNapoleon]

Its not linked to biology or geography

 

[uat2d]

Is it related to transportation?

 

[NedimNapoleon]

no,but you're close

 

[mitsho]

From the lightness of Europe, Canada and Australia, I'd guess it's some "bad-for-environment"-energy provider? Coal Factorys?

Though it seems that the aforementioned regions would be darker still since the energy use is higher there over all.

 

[NedimNapoleon]

no, not linked to energy
