Diamonds indicator on map, is it number of diamonds or suitcases?

When I bring up the map I see a number on top of each region. Is it indicating number of diamonds or suitacases hidden in that region? Some suitcases contain several diamonds.


Solution 1:

The number indicates how many diamond cases are in the region, not the total number of diamonds.

"Note that in the top left of Zone maps there is a blue number on a black square. It tells you the total number of Diamond Cases in this Zone."
