1703: A Franco-Bavarian army takes Vienna

Finally, here's a few issues on which I need to do some research for the maps specifically (as well as the TL in general, but that's one hell of a list). Any help on these would be welcomed.

The Don Cossacks
Balkan highlanders outside Turkish rule (other than the Montenegrins): the Albanians of Malesia and Himara, the Greeks of Souli, Mani and Sfakia
Lebanon
Kabylia
The Nogais
The administrative division of Morocco (some maps show Marrakech and Fes as separate domains under the same sultan)
Semen Paliy's revolt in the right-bank Ukraine
The French factories at Cap Negre and La Calle ("le Bastion de France") on the Maghreb coast (in western Tunisia and eastern Algeria respectively)
The extent of the territory on the northern Black Sea coast ruled directly by the Ottomans as opposed to the Tatars or Circassians
The status of Mahdia (in Tunisia): Under the Ottoman Empire directly or under Tunis?
The status of Medjimurje: Under Hungary directly or under Croatia?
 
An explanation on the border colors: The map I used to start off had gray borders for the limits of the HRE. So I took that color and applied it to all states where authority was not centralized. In the Ottoman Empire, for instance, Crimea, Circassia, Wallachia, Moldavia, Ragusa (on the first map), Algiers, and Tunis have gray borders facing outside the empire and black borders facing in. The following states have gray borders: the HRE, Turkey, Russia, Poland-Lithuania, Spain (first map), the Netherlands, Denmark-Norway, Hungary, Venice, Tuscany, Switzerland, the 3 Leagues, the Valais, and whichever one I forgot. (I got the colors wrong for the 2 tribal kingdoms in Kabylia: gray with Algiers, black between themselves and to the south.)

In Switzerland you may notice that I color the cantons differently. That's because I used green for the Protestant ones, brown for the Catholic ones, a combination of green and brown for Glarus (where both faiths were freely practiced), and white for those parts of the Confederacy not included in the cantons.
