This is indeed a bug, thanks for reporting.
You can override it by using ISO 3166-2 codes for addressing regions, and
formatted values for naming the region.
Here is an example:
function drawVisualization() {
var data = new google.visualization.DataTable();
data.addRows(2);
data.addColumn('string', 'Country');
data.addColumn('number', 'Popularity');
data.setValue(0, 0, 'BR-RS');
data.setFormattedValue(0, 0, 'Rio Grande do Sul');
data.setValue(0, 1, 200);
data.setValue(1, 0, 'BR-RN');
data.setFormattedValue(1, 0, 'Rio Grande do Norte');
data.setValue(1, 1, 300);
var options = {};
options['region'] = 'BR';
options['resolution'] = 'provinces';
options['width'] = 556;
options['height'] = 347;
var geochart = new google.visualization.GeoChart(
document.getElementById('visualization'));
geochart.draw(data,options);
}
I hope this helps until the bug is fixed.
