Hmm! Ever read what Leopold Of Belgium did while enslaving the tribes of the Congo chopping of the hands of the villagers children to remind them what would happen if the harvest of rubber didnt reach quota? Or seen the pictures of one of the fathers sitting in the doorway with the hands and feet of his massacred wife and daughter before him? I can see it as Moria very easy ...

I see, my apologies Bear, my comment was one of ignorance. Up until now my knowledge of Belgium consisted of some facts related to WWII and bits of trivia.
I think that they weren't doing this map to match geographically. I think it was more for how the West (the States, UK, etc.) would have viewed politcal Europe if it were ME. Since the USSR was our mortal enemy then, they would have been Mordor.
