mapByRegion
(Package: rworldmap) :
Produce maps of regional level data from country level data
This function will produce maps of regional statistics by aggregating country level data. For example mapping the total population of Asia, Europe,etc, from country level population data. As well as sums, other functions can be used, like mean, median, min, max, etc. There are currently 8 choices of region and 4 choices of country code.

Draw a barplot of country-level data, ranking the countries to allow easy comparison. One bar per country and to be able to read country names. This is useful for comparing with maps created by mapCountryData and accepts many of the same arguments for categorising and colouring.

Creates a colour bar legend, showing the range of colours and the values the colours correspond to. Relies heavily on image.plot() from the package fields. For simple use, simply use addLegend=TRUE in a rworldmap map function. Or users can call addMapLegend seperately to fine tune the legend. The user should insure that data, catMethod,numCats and colourPalette match the values used in the plot. The legend is designed to be useful for the variety of classification methods that exist.
