Solomon Sea is misspelled. Also, with this and other maps in this series, I think you need to review your use of visuals. E.g. - what is the building near Honiara supposed to represent? Unless it adds a talking point for students that is based on fact, I don't see the point. Having said that - thank you for creating teaching resources for Oceania, there are too few out there.
