I didn't see a thread on this, so sorry if there is one, but is http://cdn.gamerant.com/wp-content/uploads/Elder-Scolls-5-Skyrim-Map.jpg official?

If it is, thoughts?

The cartographer's name, Vality, is at the bottom left-hand corner of the map. He is a descent modder at Planet Elder Scrolls. I am pretty sure he doesn't actually work for Bethesda.

This map is way much older than Skyrim announcement. And you can see Oblivion icons in it, that kinda hints

It's cool, but it honestly looks a lot like http://www.uesp.net/wiki/File:V7_Shivering_Isles_Map.jpg, which isn't the official map for SI, so... :shrug:

So looking at both maps:

9 Territories including:
Haafinhelm
Northshore
Winterhold
Whitehold
Eastmarch
The Reach
The Pale
The Rift
Falkreath

5 Major Cities:
Solitude
Windhelm
Whiterun
Riften
???????

More Cities: (One of which is probably another major city)
Dawnstar
Winterhold
Karthwasten
Falkreath

and many many many settlements/towns/forts/points of interest to numerous for me to want to count them out.
