LE MONDE 1/30 - POLITIQUE

WALL MAP

Brightly colored political maps of the world available in 4 scales (from 1/20 mio to 1/ 60 mio), a variety of presentations and even with the continents turned upside-down for a different approach to how the world is represented on maps! The smaller scale maps show a decorative panel under the map displaying the flags of the various countries.
Countries are shown in vivid colors against light blue oceans. Country names are in large, clearly legible print. English versions for capitals and most city names are used. Within USA, Canada, Brazil and Australia internal state or provincial boundaries are indicated. Central Pacific, from Alaska/Siberia to New Zealand, is repeated on both sides of the map for better presentation of that region.
The maps have well designed relief shading to show mountainous areas enhancing the overall presentation. The coloring of the oceans shows different depths. Projection is Van der Grinten. Clocks show time difference from GMT. Cities and other detail: the two larger versions (1/30 mio and 1/20 mio) have more information on them than the two smaller ones (1/40 mio and 1/60 mio) - more cities and more geographical features, e.g. rivers, etc.
