The diagram below shows cities A, B, C, ..., K, and L.

            +---A   +---+   +---+---+---+
            |       |   |   |   |       |
            +---+   +   B   C   +   D   E
                |   |           |   |
            F---+---+---+---+---G---+---+
                |           |   |       |
            H   +   +---+   I   +   +---+
            |   |   |   |       |   |
            +---+---+   J   K---+   +---L

Knowing that each line segment measures 1 km and the distances (along the lines) between two cities, are:

            Bodov  -  Direb:   9 km
            Vega   -  Mares:   5 Km
            Fugud  -  Rigel:   4 km
            Tolima -  Bodov:   8 km
            Atlas  -  Supra:  11 km
            Cona   -  Poris:   6 km
            Kuma   -  Atlas:   4 km
            Fugud  -  Cona:   12 km
            Poris  -  Vega:    5 km

Identify the cities.

When first seeing this I thought there was a misspelling, hence the subject.

I have noted a range of options meaning that I have quite a few choices but the one that is paramount is "B......E.......D"!

So saying,

"From Timbuktoo to Kalamazoo, it's a long, long way to go..."

Enjoy.
