I need help with creating a map in Gimp
#2
Various ways you can build up those areas.  

Start off with a decent size base image that includes select-able areas.  If you have one of those, then assemble the images to go into the areas in a folder.  If you can scale or adjust at this stage it is better but not absolutely necessary. Build up the image by Open-as-layers using the bottom layer as a base.

Then one way.
Add the image layer
Make the selection from the base layer
Onto the image layer and add a layer mask from the selection. This gives some room for adjustment (an alternative is invert the selection and delete)
Kill the selection and apply the layer mask.

That is one area, repeat the process for the other areas. Work from the base layer up-over. All very tedious, take it one area at a time and do not rush.
