I think if you made this kinda an edu-game where you learn about the map and provinces with many landmarks thrown in, it could sell to schools! I have no sense of geography but games can make it surprisingly easy to learn a map.
That's really good idea. I was also considering to make it have access to Google Maps (or something similar) in order to generate roads and/or sites for the player to view. This could help people get to know their general area, as well as be a fun virtual driving experience.
