Tl;dr - Your idea sounds near impossible to be done without a lot of damage, but if it is possible, you aren't one of those who I'd trust to plan it out and implement it.

If it will make the game more interesting, cut them out.
As Sindroms said, a lot of these systems (I say about 40, can't recall how many of them were removed) are not used nowadays for any RP. As for removing, I also thought about merging some systems as well or moving stuff from one system into other, more active one. As for now, Fukuoka or Corse do not pose any value to the roleplay. As for Ellesmere, I'd merge that system with Alaska and put a nice big Big Badlands on the "western" side of the system. There are also many empty systems and I'm too lazy on time to list them out, but I believe you'd like to check this.
Red dots are places of system, which could be removed and had their content moved into other place, as there's no real activity in there.
The result would be something like this. (Rho was removed by accident by the way.)
