I was mostly eyeballing the Organised Areas in modern South Sudan. Thanks for pointing those issues out, I'll fix them later. Luoland sounds like a nice name, though it would only make sense if the capital of the Presidency was placed in the area; it probably would be. As for your latter point, that's because this is using the former borders of Uganda from before its eastern section was transfered to Kenya in 1902. Like most African borders, it was a very strange boundary, so it didn't line up with native territories at all. I might amend it later to include the rest of the Maasai areas, though.
This looks great and very similar to the style of the original, good work.
With the King/Queen of the United Kingdoms ruling so many Crowns in Europe, I imagine that most of the Crowns would have a Viceroy/Governor-General like position that will serve as the representative of the monarch in that area.
Wouldn't Sarawak under the White Rajahs be more fun than Sarawak as a crown colony?
I've always loved the World-Raj project, all of this is looking awesome guys! Well done 
Here is the most recent version of my contribution:

I hope it's clear where the free cities I've added are located.

IOTL there were many Mennonites in western Virginia. Perhaps they could be featured here. Additionally, the early Shires of Virginia look interesting and could be used.
Sadly, my mapping skills aren't awesome enough to be able to adequately translate those onto the map properly.IOTL there were many Mennonites in western Virginia. Perhaps they could be featured here. Additionally, the early Shires of Virginia look interesting and could be used.
Is there a Qbam basemap with those on it?
Yeah, that would definitely be fun. There could also be some other White Rajs in Asia and Africa.

There isn't anything wrong with your mapping skills, its a confidence thing & judging by what I've seen, once you ARE confident we all better watch out.Sadly, my mapping skills aren't awesome enough to be able to adequately translate those onto the map properly.

Stamford Raffles, Cecil Rhodes anyone?
So what's the deal with Cambodia, Florida, and Pennsylvania having special religious privileges? And are we limiting it to Abrahamic faiths or would any major religious site have these privileges? If it's the latter there should probably be some sites in India.
For Florida, I admit that I didn't have anything in particular in mind. I am more than happy to change it for the next version.
I had the "Gullah Strip" along the coast of Georgia and South Carolina as the "religious autonomy", since I couldn't think of anything else that was more suitable.
As for Pennsylvania - that's Amish country, so I just went with that.
Comoros Agency (Atzyn)
Here's a smaller one, the Comoros Agency:
Labeled:
The Dueling Sultanates of Grand Comore are under an HRE-type system, with a grand sultan of the whole island. This title used to be won via warfare (hence the "Dueling" in Dueling Sultanates) but the title is now purely ceremonial and is won via a fencing tournament between the island's sultans.

We are not limiting it to Abrahamic, I'm still working with India but if you know some religious areas that would speed things up.
Beautiful
Is this one of the White Raja states?
Sounds like a good idea- do you have any idea how to represent them on the map?
@TheBeanieBaron do you have any ideas when Portugal became a Federal Kingdom? I think only colonies established by that time should be considered Portuguese.
