A Wikimedia map with detailed annotation. Political boundaries are probably much more important than the geographic longitude value. A very high proportion of countries span multiple 15 degree longitude zones. In nearly all countries, cities near certain borders might round off to a different time zone by geographic location, but are grouped into the country's primary time zone by political boundaries.

Most time zones in Radiance notation are given in multiples of 15 
degrees.  Exceptions to this are the countries marked on this map
