I played that a few years ago... I recall that Greenland was the Exiled States of America, and there were several other amusing country names, along with some names that made no sense and which I assume were in-jokes among the designers. And the moon and undersea colonies. It was an interesting variant on the game, though maybe a little overly complicated for Risk.
There's also Lord of the Ring risk, which I've only played once. The map is a possibility, though copyright is an issue and Tolkiens' estate can be rabid about it. The game itself some nice variants, inspired by 2210 I believe and adjusted after playtesting.
