You left out the border between Portuguese Timor and the Dutch East Indies/Indonesia. Also South West Africa was a League of Nations Mandate administered by South Africa, which issued its own postage stamps, etc. After 1960, South Africa is the Republic of South Africa. And please accept "Nyasaland", "Swaziland", "Bechunaland", etc. without the British; there was no French pr Spanish Swaziland, for example.

I've added Timor and Nyasaland. Bechuanaland and Swaziland were already accepted. The way it's listed now, I've treated South West Africa as a part of South Africa. Were you suggesting I change it? Thanks for the corrections!

Your call on how to treat the Mandate/Trust Territory of Southwest Africa. I can see good arguments both ways.

Portugal technically continued to hold sovereignty over East Timor until 19 May 2002. Indeed from the end of the illegal Indonesian occupation on 20 September 1999 this was the de jure position(albeit the actual administration was undertaken by UN troops and officials).

I realize this may come across as bitchy, since an argument could be made for the opposite, but maybe give Tanganyika and British Tanganyika for Tanzania, since they were the same country, but with different borders.
