Could you name the regions that are missing from the FO map so I can have a better look at them?

Well I am not someone who makes a fuss about little things but then again I am.. but seriously this is more upsetting than watching a two headed cow and calling it 'Brahmin'.Ok now that was sarcasm I have nothing against a two headed cow or the fact that they are called Brahmin (- to Non Indians that is a caste btw) and I am sure all of us Indians who've finally managed to buy Fallout 4 on steam have the same mindset.But this is kinda awkward.. and upsetting.Take a look at this screenshotThis shot of a 'Clean Globe' as found in the labs of 'The Institute' depicts the WRONG map of my country India.Which is very silly to say the least, up until a few years ago getting a reference to 'India' or anything Indian in most mainstream western and european media was very rare, but now that we are getting some form of attention why are we represented as a group of - weird cow loving curry licking women ♥♥♥♥♥♥ nationalistic Communism loving - people?I mean is our significance so less that game developers would not even bother to put up the correct map of our country in their games? We've fought multiple wars for these territories, these territories which are INDIAN but are shown in this map as Chinese/Pakistani have some serious emotional value to us, people have lost their lives defending it and continue to do so even to this day.Sure some of you may not care, some of you will say that since these are disputed territories they're excluded from the 'India Proper' map and some of you will say it's a trivial matter and they just took wikipedia's word for it.Well to them I'd say ignorance like that is what starts great wars which is the backdrop of this game.You want me to be responsible for some ♥♥♥♥♥♥ bosses you've had in your career? Sure I'd give you my version of an explanation. You see Indian 'entrepreneurs' are mostly people who've worked their way up from the bottom, sure there are people who got things handed to them but mostly of us know what hard work is. Now I certainly dont say that anyone who's not Indian isnt hard working and hasnt scraped the bottom of a barrel to make to where they are today. Go to any any society in the world where there is excessive struggle and poverty, what you will find are individuals who work their asses off just to put bread on the table.Now with that point made let me give you the mental image that every Indian has about a typical european / westerner - Morbidly obese chweing on a Mc Burger.I am not calling you lazy / obese or whatever I am just telling you that MAYBE what you thought was 'hard work' was simply 'lazy work' in the eyes of your bosses.Similarly your level of 'proper management' might be 'over management' in the eyes of your bosses, simply put you're trying to mix East & West together surely there will be some grey spots.Not frustrated, just amazed at the silliness. Ignore the excessive use of exclamation mark, they're just.. 'decorative' lol.Wiki has excluded the disputed territories of India from the map on their maps.If you REALLY wanna know then Google for 'Proper Map of India' or even better, google for the Indian map of Kashmir and the state of Arunachal Pradesh. It may be enough for your eyes and I assure you glasses won't be needed.Yes I understand this logic, but you fail to understand mine, has there been any lore set in the Fallout universe where it said that India or any other country has been annexed / conquered by US or China?OFF COURSE I can see a lot of other countries who have had their maps altered here, YES I can see the dead Med-Sea, but my point only gets stronger here.IF we were to take the political outlines of THIS 'Clean globe' as the map of pre-war countries in the fallout universe then where is the lore for those changes??Rememberas in real world back then.So whenever something big happens like a war between two countries or anything in this alternate universe there has to be an explanation or mention of that event. That is the general thumb rule every alternate universe story follows.Green Med-Sea ? Give an explanation! Dried up water bodies of Eurasia and Africa ? GIVE an explanation! A clean globe from 'before' the war (as in before 1970) and STILL messed up maps GIVE AN EXPLANATION.Remember this globe was in The Institute.I don't like being politically correct. If I did, I wouldn't be playing a game that has the world dying off a Nuclear Armageddon.I am simply saying that EITHER Bethesda screwed up (again) or they need to set a lore about this issue.Umm.. I'm very Indian I can assure you of that.
