World Map
A world map is a visual representation of Earth's surface, illustrating continents, countries, oceans, and major geographical features. It helps us understand the relative locations, sizes, and relationships between different places around the globe. Maps can be drawn in various projections to balance accuracy, shape, area, or distance, though all have some distortions. They are essential tools for navigation, education, and understanding global geography, providing a snapshot of our planet's diverse landscapes and political boundaries in a simplified, accessible format.
