Nine Nations on Soda Pop

Hot on the web today was a map of the US showing the distribution of generic names for soft drinks.

It struck me that there was some rough correlation to the "Nine Nations of North America"

Note: Some people split the continent up slightly differently. Large parts of Ecotopia are claimed by the Cascadians and New England appears to be properly named Atlantica.
