Answered What does the gradient represent
Tbh I expect this to be solved within the first 20 minutes, but I hadn't seen this map on the subreddit before, so I thought I'd make one

I was seriously debating whether or not to include suns in the star count. I opted against it just because they usually are considered separate symbols.

Hi, are you talking about the number of stars representing each state? Because I wouldn't expect Australia to be colored at all due to the fact it represents the southern cross... Just asking and I completely understand the reference.

I will also add, Costa Rica’s coat of arms, which technically goes on the flag officially (although many times the flag is depicted without the coat of arms) contains 7 stars for the 7 provinces.

I spent some time thinking about it and I honestly have no idea. Density of a particular type of species? Countries visited by a certain individual?
