HI @Anonymous ,

I'd like to suggest you double-check on these issue regions to confirm it they describe accurately. 

For example:

1. do not use the abbreviation.
2. check if their name are conflict with other countries.
3. confirm you are using the official name.
4. add parent level address if their names are too simple ('XXXX town' to 'xxx counrty, XXXX town'/'xxx city XXXX town')

In addition, you can check the following blog about tips and tricks about use maps in power bi to know how to help map visual location accurately.

If above not help, you can also contact to the visual author to confirm if this issue is more related to visual backend process logic.

Regards,
