This seems to be a bug in the Google Charts API (which this site is just an interface to)

If you manually set a zoom and highlight the UK and Ireland:



You can see it does know where Northern Ireland is, but I think when you use the entire-world view it scales the overlay and the background differently and Northern Ireland disappears.

If you highlight just Northern Ireland on the world map, it's a tiny pixel or two of color.

What national connections do the Channel Islands have as far as the Google Charts API is concerned? They're the leetle grey dots to the west of the Cherbourg peninsula in your illustration. The Isle of Man (between England and Ireland) is tagged as British although Manx folk have their own legal and taxation systems like the Channel Islanders.
