  • Check the relevant blog post, containing some shortcuts and tips.
  • Check a quick guide to the available map projections.
  • Other World maps: the simple World map, the World with microstates map (includes all microstates), and the World Subdivisions map (all countries divided into their subdivisions).
  • For historical maps, please visit Historical Mapchart, where you can find Cold War, World War I, World War II and more maps.
