:::::::*Montreal is also much more south on Barber's map, move it?

::::::::@[[User:Goran tek-en|Goran tek-en]],
::::::::*The border between the Kingdom of Jerusalem and the County of Tripoli as visible in [https://imgur.com/3axWHgr Runciman's map] is the solid black line starting at the coast between Jebeil and Beirut (it might be solid because it is too short to be dashed).
::::::::*The border in the draft map appears south of Beirut, but it should be just to the north, as Beirut belonged to the kingdom. I would also suggest restricting the golden color denoting the kingdom to the area up to Beirut, i.e. not north of it, as that's where the County of Tripoli was.
::::::::*I would not cut away at the north. It's important to show the neighbors for context.
::::::::*I think it is now soft enough in the south-west and could be a tad bit softer in the south-east.
::::::::*Old Shaizar (the fortress) was north of the Orontes. Let's put it there.
::::::::*Montreal's coordinates are 30°31′52.84″N 35°33′40.47″E.
::::::::*Might it be possibly to depict the internal division of the kingdom based on [https://imgur.com/a/YKT8sDy this map] found in Jonathan Riley-Smith's ''The Feudal Nobility and the Kingdom of Jerusalem'' (1974)? It is fairly close to what we have in [[:File:1889 The Kingdom of Jerusalem, shewing the Fiefs, about 1187 A.D..jpg]]. I would not know how to depict this internal division. Any kind of lines, even dashed like in Riley-Smith's map, would probably not match well with the smudged kingdom borders we have now.
