very nice, the eastern part of north america is intense, and Japan.

There's acutally quite a lot of money in Africa in some parts, my brother is living there now with his family. The northern part is the Sahara and sub sahara, that's why there isn't many lights there, not to mention the thick jugle the covers the central part of the contenent.

Yeah, africa is not as poor as a lot of people have been led to believe...some parts, yeah, but thats the same with any contenant...kinda hard to have lights if there are no people (ie: desert and rainforest)
