political map
Countries and borders
A political map shows boundaries, borders, and territorial divisions rather than physical features like mountains or rivers.
It typically displays countries, states, provinces, and their capitals: The political map of Europe has changed dramatically since 1990.
Contrast with topographical or physical maps, which emphasize terrain and natural features.
