I've been asked by a couple of folks how they might get started creating a map of the United States in XAML. Having done some mapping work in my past, I know how difficult it can be to create the states as individual elements, but arranged to represent the shape of the country. It's challenging to say the least.

So, having said that, I wanted to make sure that everyone that needs the United States rendered in XAML can have it. I found this on the blog of Maciej Skierkowski, where he was facing the same problem. It's my understanding that he created this, and here's his post on the reason.
