to rworldmap

Dear All,

I have searched the documentation but I am unable to find a definition of how the countries are classed into one of 7 'REGION' (REGION column in rworldmap dataframe obtained using 'st_as_sf(rworldmap::getMap(resolution = "less islands"))')?

Are these based on United Nations Georegions? Although Russia is included with Europe and Papua New Guinea in Australasia.

Many thanks,

Daniel
