Hoff,
If you are starting from scratch or working from a map like some of the ones at wikipedia that are vector based (usually in .SVG format) then I would recommend Illustrator. Otherwise I'd use Inkscape.

Picasa is barely an image editor, its a good photo and image sorting progam, but its editing capabilities are limited
