Real world Maps and GIS?

Sparked by the pangaea thread.

Anyone ever try using GIS/CAD 3D for mapmaking?

Would extruding the contours into 2.5D (not really 3D) play well? I'm assuming not since we can't rotate the map. Maybe little not-true-to-scale mountains?

How are province borders made? Hand drawn or is there a program that will chop it up into X provinces such as RanDom by Ballbarian?

Wonder how hard it would be to incorporate just a map rotate function, even with keeping everything else 2D.
