Can You Guess What These Maps Show?

I'm no doubt still under massive food coma at this time, but in case you've regained consciousness or don't live in the US, check out this collection of maps from The Morning News. Can you guess what each is supposed to show? If you can guess even one of them correctly, I'll be impressed.

[Thanks, William]

Extremely cool to try; the only one I managed to guess is the one you have displayed.

I guess having prior knowledge of the maps don’t count?

Well, If not I got two. (Last one was a surprise! :)

In your face Ben!

Definitely harder than I expected. I only knew three: 7, 17, and 21, but they weren’t really guesses.

Map #15 has some faulty data, the Province of Ontario in Canada is marked in dark blue when it should be orange like the rest of Canada.

My first comment here although I do pop in from time to time for some interesting entertainment, I could say I come for the data but really it more for the pretty pictures!

The map of internet usage was interesting–I wonder how it would change if it were a measure of per capita use, rather than just population.
I’d also be interested to see a map that detailed internet influence–i.e. what countries were putting the most sites on the web. Who is controlling what the web looks like?
