Could be; it's hard to tell as we don't have Madagascar as additional reference. It does, however, have the Angola / Namibia curve, so ... yeah, about that region, if the red lines indicate location.
Or an indicator of the power levels. Mm. Who knows.But what I assume you are looking at is the blue warning marker (!) with the calendar specs. That one is strangely pointing towards Ethiopia/Somalia, yeah. Unfortunate placing, maybe. Or the marker and the red ship zoom-out are unrelated. Or it's really the indication that the Alari haven't landed their colony ship in Galtyn, but on a random point on Earth that they found suitable. In the latter case, the red lines are not indicating Galtyn, at all.
