Can you replicate this problem using the -spmap ancillary- datasets?
Both the maps in the example below produce regional borders:
use "Italy-RegionsData.dta", clear
spmap using "Italy-RegionsCoordinates.dta", id(id) name(gr1,replace)
spmap using "Italy-RegionsCoordinates.dta", id(id) ///
point(data("Italy-RegionsData.dta") xcoord(xcoord) ///
ycoord(ycoord) fcolor(red) size(*1.5)) ///
name(gr2,replace)
Another way is to use the -polygon()- option
use "Italy-OutlineData.dta", clear
spmap using "Italy-RegionsCoordinates.dta", id(id) ///
point(data("Italy-RegionsData.dta") xcoord(xcoord) ///
ycoord(ycoord) fcolor(red) size(*1.5)) ///
polygon(data("Italy-RegionsCoordinates.dta"))
