This isn't directly relevant to routing and addressing, but there is
an interesting map depicting undersea cables and adoption of Internet
spanning 1998 to 2009.  It is zoomable to show more detail:

The companion story - "Is Kenya sabotaging its broadband future?":

  http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-11863225

is relevant to multihoming.  There are organised cable cutting
sabotage attacks, where the backup cables are also being cut.
