[edit] Summary

A blank map of the world as of 2008, with country outlines, for making country locator maps. This map uses the Robinson projection centered on the Greenwich Prime Meridian and includes various microstates and island nations. All territories indicated in the UN listing of territories and regions are exhibited.

The map was made by User:Vardion and adapted by User:E Pluribus Anthony for Wikipedia.

Version with additional miscellaneous islands at Image:BlankMap-World-alt.png. Also see v2 and v4 for versions with micro-states, and v3 and v5 for versions with microstates + thin lines joining country areas.

A version of this map is available with black lines for borders at Image:BlankMap-World-Borders.png.

Other blank maps are available at Wikipedia:Blank maps and Category:Blank maps of the world

If you plan on generating a new map for wikipedia by zooming in on this map and making some modifications, please consider a source map in SVG format instead, which will produce a higher quality image. These can be found in the SVG section at Wikipedia:Blank Maps
