Hello
One simple way of doing it is to specify the xlim and ylim of your map,
e.g. library(maps)
map('world', 'Norway', xlim=c(5, 33), ylim=c(55, 75))
btw. the reason why Norway comes out so small when writing only
map('world', 'Norway')
is due to the Bouvet Island, located south (54 degrees south) in the
Atlantic Ocean.

Actually this not a good way, since then you have to trust CIA and its
naming conventions. All large coastal islands are left out (Lofoten
etc), although for some peculiar reason, Tromsø seems to be there.
However, even continental parts of eastern Finmark are excluded (I hope
this does not have political implications). Just compare the following
maps:
map(worldHires,Norway, exact=TRUE, type=n)
map(worldHires,Norway, add=TRUE)
map(worldHires,Norway, add=TRUE, exact=TRUE, col=red)
By the way, where is Estonia? Couln't find it with any strings I could
imagine. Some R core developers have frequented Estonia, so it would be
nice to have that in the map.

usa() {map}
This database produces a map of the United States mainland generated
from US
Department of the Census data (see the reference).
Usage
data(usaMapEnv)
Format
The data file is merely an assignment to a character string which
specifies
the name of an environment variable which contains the base location of
the
binary files used by the map drawing functions. This environment variable
(R_MAP_DATA_DIR for the datasets in the maps package) is set at package
load
time if it does not already exist. Hence setting the environment variable
before loading the package can override the default location of the
binary
datasets.

R users,
In S, there was a function called usa() that
would draw the map of the United States, plus
it had other options for graphics. I have looked
but I can't find the equivalent in R. Is there one?
