The image produced by the program seemed unbalanced because Japan’s southernmost islands were included even though they are not part of the electrical grid. I used an image editing program to remove the outlines of those islands and shift the main part of the country toward the center.
Side comments:
Not indicated on the map is the fact that Japan’s electrical grid runs at 50 Hz in the eastern and northern parts of the country and 60 Hz in the west:

Really nice and OET is great

The aesthetics of this feel very similar to this project I saw on here a few months back. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46656834
I see two examples, India and Africa. Both of which look great but Africa is not a country.
Africa is not a country.
