If this sketch were interpreted as an actual map, it would suggest auroras are "normal" all the way to the south of France and the northern USA, and "cool and exciting" all the way to the north of Mexico. At first I figured zones were just scaled to fit the text, but that wouldn't explain why the polar latitudes (which have the least amount of text) are too big.
