Why is there no discussion before deleting such rather big parts entirely from the map? Everyone knows the fact that in both countries there are significant Portuguese-speaking groups: For instance, in Namibia in 2011 they were '''estimated to be 100,000, or 4–5% of the total population''' and an obligatory foreign language: http://www.namibian.com.na/index.php?id=28&tx_ttnews[tt_news]=85817&no_cache=1 (insert full link!). Admittedly, rather not on a nation-wide level thus not making that language a means of communicatin for all citizens, but still you must put a '''green square on these two''' (-> why not "transfer" the two silly ones on Hawaii and somewhere in the North Atlantic on a level with Washington DC?).
