Differences from original Modern Diplomacy:

All powers owns only two home centers (exception: Russia owns three).

All powers are divided in a number of territories equals to three times its home centers (nine
territories in case of Russia, six territories for anybody else). This condition implied in some
territories adjustment: Ast (Spain), Sid (Egypt), Tre (Turkey) and Lod (Poland) were created, while
Auv (France), Tus (Italy) and Gor (Russia) were deleted.

The supply centers in small geographical features were deleted (Monaco and Gibraltar), and its
territories were absorbed by Mar (France) and And (Spain), respectively.

All internal boundaries in neutral countries were excluded. So Algeria and Norway now form entire
countries (Western Sahara and Laponia were deleted).

Caspian Sea is unreachable, hence Iran have just south coast. The original Rostov channel into
Caspian Sea don't exist in this variant.

Some minor drawing adjustments were made in map, specially in southern Jordanian border (now it
touches RED clearly) and ARC-Ice frontiers.
