National Geographic's enlarged Classic map of Africa provides a detailed geographic view of national and regional boundaries. Perfect as a reference map pinpointing your travels both past and future, this map can also be a tool for businesses to display African office, supplier and distribution locations. This map is in a convenient poster-sized format.
The signature Classic style map uses a bright, easy to read color palette featuring blue oceans and stunning shaded relief that has been featured on National Geographic wall maps for over 75 years. Insets of islands, climate and terrain add context to this vast continent. Drawn in the Azimuthal Equidistant projection, this map ensures that all points on the map are at proportionally correct distances from the center point.
Place names are carefully placed on the map to maintain legibility even in the heavily populated areas. Details include clearly defined international boundaries, cities, physical features, rivers, and ocean floor features.
National Geographic's maps are the standard by which all other reference maps are measured. They are meticulously researched and adhere to National Geographic's convention of making independent, apolitical decisions based on extensive research using multiple authoritative source.
Printed on polypropylene, an ideal material for wall maps as the printing brings out rich colours, and crisp edges for readability. The material is stronger than most papers and unlikely to crease or rip. The matte finish eliminates glare, and adds texture to the map. Ideal for display.
Your map is rolled and packaged in a sturdy tube to protect it during shipment.
