I have redone the italian city map but in my own format since I didn't like the worldbuilder save or the excel file. Attached are the screenshots of Italy (north, south, islands).
I also changed some tiles on the map:
- modified Alpes in the north west to reflect the real historical passes (several tiles involved, see screenshot).
- added Venice tile as proposed by Disenfranchised.
- added marsh north of Ravenna.
- converted an ocean tile into a plains tile at Pisa, Foggia, Trapani and Marsala.
- converted mountain to hill at Melfi.
Proposed changes are:
- make Campania (the region of Napoli and Benevento) bigger by adding one plains tile and moving the Vesuvio as indicated by red signs on the South Italy screenshot.
- turn a grassland tile into mountain in Sardinia as indicated by the red sign in the Islands screenshot. That tile is actually home to the highest mounts in Sardinia

I have not covered Dalmatia, Greece, Aegean sea, Cyprus and Crimea since I probably know as much as anyone else here about those places, but if need be I can do it.
on Sicily:
Sicily has been ruled by Byzantines, Arabs, Normans, Germany/Swabia and Aragonese in the order. Plus it was a conquest goal for Pisa and Genoa. Will the control of Sicily be included into UHVs of those civs ? Here is a toponymy for Sicily and southern Calabria:
