I tried to fit the circles. It works more or less. I will change the borders and the placements of the names slightly, so that they fit more neatly with the circles.

I tried my best but I could not fit the circles inside the territories in a proper way. You can try by yourself and see the results. Circles can't cover the territory names, not only, connections between territories need to be clear and also which name refers to which territory needs to be as clear as possible.
Yes, probably working with the text size and placement might solve the issue. It won't be much effort for me to relocate 30 circles on a 1024 px size image once the issue will be solved.

P.S. HD can be good or bad depending on which device you use, on my end it works just finely.

No, I think it's fine as it is.

Ok done. @Dima: Thanks for adding Danzig and Königsberg, I love it!

P.S. Just a note for the next time: it's your task to verify that circles can fit well enough.

@Dima: You modified some borders for fitting the circles better, but the same modifications has to be done also in the mini-map.
As it is now the territories in the mini-map have a different shape, it is not good.

Great job! If the author agrees I would just TRY TO SEE how it looks writing "Otto von Bismarck" instead of "Bonuses & Minimap". Just as a personal favour, please Dima.
For the ignorants like me it would be very useful information!

The phrase "German Empire" sounds, to me, much more appealing than "Eastern Germany 1900" or "German East 1900", so the current title is:
German Empire's Eastern Provinces (which in fact corresponds to the graphic title in German). It's a bit long, but it's cool.
In this case the possessive with 's sounds normal to me and sounds well, and thanks to ChatGPT we learned it is never wrong.

Forgive my doubts Dima. Is it Bismarck, right? Because honestly I read "Bismarcf".
