(1) First thought when viewing the map: "It is too bright."

(2) I played on my phone (big screen for a phone), and I had to surrender on turn 1 because the map takes up too much memory and caused my phone to lag. This only happens on big maps (with over 200 territories). You might want to reduce the amount of memory the map requires, otherwise it might be too cumbersome to play from a phone.

(3) The map's size requires too much zooming in and zooming out to be played smoothly from a phone. Medium Earth and Imperium Romanum don't. Your map has about as many territories as those two. Did you use the map size Fizzer rcommended? Or did you make your map size far larger, thinking it would have a different effect?

Suggestions: (1) Less color, more greys and blacks. Deleting some colors to make them black would reduce the memory required too. (2) Less details, less memory. (3) Play with sizing (so the map can be played with minimal zooming in). Maybe this influences memory most of all (eg, my China: Warring States map probably has more crap in it than your map, but its sizing is different and it never lags on my phone).
