That's an idea, but someone *might* recognise their state boundaries,
even shifted into the Atlantic and maybe even rotated and given a
silly name. I just like the idea of creating totally fictitious
regions!
That's another interesting problem - creating fake names for regions.
I suppose you could have a set of prefixes and suffixes and join them
randomly...
using names of disease vectors to generate prefix/suffixes (mosquito,
nematode .....)? Can then use family, genus, species etc already nicely
arranged into different strata?
Reminds me of the time a few years ago I did a quiz round by printing
country and UK county outlines onto paper and cutting the paper into
circles so nobody knew where north was. It did confuse people...
