A bit of the idea with the style is actually to firstly show the map. The region/sea/mountain labels are something that should be there if you look for them, but they shouldn't distract you from the map itself. When it comes to the city names I can agree that some of them are a bit hard to read, but I don't want them bigger. If you look at old maps names of towns are seldom bigger then this. In my next map in this style (the Truscian Peninsula) I think I managed to make the names clearer but still keeping the small size.
