Like my other maps, I did not make editions directly on the map because it is difficult to make adjustments on the already created images that have already been so beautifully created and I can explain the symbols and all just as well on here. So here it goes...the legends:

The solid dot represents the publically accessible cities

the striped box represents publically accessible regions

the dark box represents the storage of coal

the tall dark box placed vertically represent the storage of fossil fuel

the dotted line means the railroad

Since the image is in Chinese, I believe that I keep it to its originality because I'm afraid that editing it will mess up with the intricate pictorial details that are currently present. Instead, I will provide a detailed explanation to the different legends in here:

Both legend scales(the horizontal line strip and the Piesces symbol) on the top role indicate the Rice Paddy Distribution

Both scales on the middle row (the vertical line and the t symbol) indicate Wheat Distribution
