When complete, this should be able to represent any game board that is based on a geographical map. The map will be defined with a YAML file and an SVG file for display. Hopefully there will be a community effort to create many great map files, enabling these games to take on many forms.
The original purpose is for a Risk-like game, but it is envisioned that other games will be possible using the same code and maps, so it is being written as generically as possible.
Your game must implement the BoardSpot trait for whatever type of data is to be placed in each map territory.
