I think you should change Klang to Kelang because it is the more common name for the city.

Oh, I forgot (sorry):

Again, Algeciras and Barcelona weren't on the original of the map, which is what I used.

All the ports shown are indeed busy places, but not a strict ranking (e.g., "World's 30 Busiest Ports").

I could've added more, but the map seemed to have enough dots already.

Certainly there is room for one or more additional games on the subject...

The two main ports of Spain are Algeciras and Barcelona

That wasn't quite clear:

The map is well-stocked with dots in the sense that there are enough dots for a good game, and adding more would've started to make it less so.

But there are a lot of regions left out.

I could have added many cities to the original map, but it was already pretty well-stocked with dots. There is only one port on the Black Sea, none on the Mediterranean, only two Great Lakes / St. Lawrence ports, one in all of Latin America, none in Australia, no Baltic ports, no Russian ports, etc. etc.

I realize that most of the ports shown are among the busiest, but still...

This might call for a version 2, but that would require a different map, as some of the areas mentioned are a bit crowded.

Or maybe a series of seaport games: Med/Black, Carribean/Central/South America, Great Lakes/St. Larry, etc.

The people of Barcelona should feel slighted over Vigo and Bilbao.
