here's a quick WIP of the world (i stitched the 4 globes together, added my intended final texture and saved them as a JPG to show the current progress)

the majority of labels remain in the western globe, though there's new things popping up all over the place.

I also tried changing the borders. i'll probably add a thick coloured wet-edge border to the nations under the dotted line. they're better than before though i'm still not 100% sold...

(the upload is a compressed jpg, about 25% the original size., reshaped using automatic bicubic on PS6, so some detail has been compromised)
