The rivers may need a little help. I read the sticky about rivers, but I can't promise I got it all right. Some borders are on rivers, some aren't. I'll see if I can mark it up properly and maybe get some advice.
Thanks for the rep!

Well, it looks like you have some rivers splitting, which doesn't normally happen, unless it's near the sea (a delta).
Also near Catala it looks like you have some rivers running from ocean to ocean? Normally, a river starts somewhere in a high place, mountains for example, and then exits into the ocean.

Welcome, and great first map! Apart from the afore mentioned river issues, you might also consider turning the glow down a biy. It is perhaps a bit overpowering. (kind of looks like it should be a map of heaven or something)
I look forward to seeing more!

Thanks for the tips! Yeah, I do have some splitting, so I can take that out. Hooray for layers.
The ocean-to-ocean river is actually two rivers coming off the same mountain, but maybe that's silly? I meant for that region to be like Greece, with lots of channels and islands, but I didn't really follow through.
I see what you mean about the glow - on the coastlines, right? It's got two layers on top of the flat water color. Maybe if it didn't feather so far from the coast?
Here's all the rivers highlighted, with the political stuff turned off.
This is fantastic for a first map, well done!
