Quick civics test

Hmm. It's going to be something related to population centers. Electricity usage? Something environmental?

Those lights up along the Canadian border are throwing me. And some of the western ones seem a little out of place for even light urban sprawl. Which makes me think it's something peripheral to urbanization like power or fuel or what have you. I think that's as close as I'm going to come.

Edit: Maybe gasoline? Maybe gasoline distribution points or something like that? There are strings along I15, I90, I80, etc. Too far apart for gas stations, and that would be a hell of a map anyway, but maybe gas tank farms?

I still don't think that's quite right. Too dense in the east. What else grows up in urban centers and along highways?

Second Edit: Okay, those aren't the national borders around the edge. Those are highways and population centers. So we're definitely talking about something that's concentrated in cities and along highways. It can't be gas stations, that would just be too dense a number of lights for any map. Something that lives along highways but isn't gas.

Heh. A cynical voice in my head says it's Starbucks.

I don't know. They track the distance between fuel points, as seen on the "Next gas xhundred miles" signs, so I guess I'll stick with that idea and say places where gasoline is available. Final answer, Regis.
 
That whoever did the artwork has know idea what they are doing?

The flag that depicts Texas is not the Canadian Flag. A Canadian Flag, last time I looked, has a Maple Leaf on it, not a Star.
 
Dude, pay attention. They're different maps. The flags on the one and the country names on the other are not related.
 
Got it. Thought of what it could be and when I Googled it, your map came up. I'll leave it out of the thread and PM you, Liar, so the people without Puzzle OCD can try to figure it out, too.
 
Nope. I'll give you a hint: There are a lot more than 500 lights on there, and the ones in major urban centers are very dense.
 
Setting aside my impulse to make jokes at the South's expense:

Obviously the red and blue are voting-related at the county level. I don't want to google the presidential election to see if it's that because that's how I stumbled on the McD's map. Um... The blue corresponds to counties with university towns in Georgia- GT and Morehouse, etc, in Atlanta; Albany, Savannah, Columbus, all university towns- and Nashville, the Athens of the South, is blue, so maybe it's a correlation between education levels and voting? The dots being local school systems above the median?
 
A good thought, but the dots are something more historical than that.
 
The blue areas are cotton growing areas and the black dots are plantations that used slaves
