My Maps - Episode 1

I made a map for each continent (Except Oceania and Antarctica, Americas are one continent) and the World + US States + Middle East highlighting a different thing. Hope you enjoy!

1. Africa's Life Expectancy

Countries of Africa by life expectancy

Source: Wikipedia (UN data for 2023, life expectancy at birth)

Note that Switzerland and UK are labelled as No Religion, because no religion makes up a larger proportion than any individual of the three Christian denominations, but Christianity is still the largest overall

3. Asia: Is the capital the largest city?

Note that the largest city in Palestine is either Jerusalem or Gaza, not the capital of Ramallah, but I do not consider Palestine a country, so I marked it green anyways

Data from Wikipedia

4. Languages in the Americas

Various Creoles are spoken in the Caribbean, but I am naming English for the Lesser Antilles, Jamaica, Bahamas, and British Territories, French for Haiti and French Territories, and Dutch for the Dutch territories

Source is my own knowledge with some fact checking

5. USA Elevation Map

This shows the rank of average elevation among the states, with different colors representing different ranks (51-41, 40-31, 30-21, 20-11, 10-6, 5-1) among highest average elevation

6. Middle Eastern GDP

Here, the green countries have a nominal GDP per capita in the upper 50% of the world's countries, while the red ones have a nominal GDP per capital in the lower 50% of the world's countries. This time, Palestine is going to be separate from Israel in order to rub some salt. Source is wikipedia

This map divides the countries of the world by how tall their tallest building is. Source is Wikipedia
