World Executive Map, Mural, 110" x 76.5"

Expertly researched and designed, National Geographic's World Wall Map is the authoritative map of the world by which other reference maps are measured. Antique-style "executive" color palette. Background shows mountain ranges and valleys in subtle shaded relief with mountain ranges labeled. Major water bodies including rivers, lakes, glaciers, oceans, seas, gulfs, bays, straits, and bathymetry. Clearly defined international boundaries, cities, islands, airports, and physical features. Thousands of place names carefully and artfully placed to maintain legibility in heavily populated areas. Up-to-date international boundaries and territorial control reflect de facto status on the ground. Meticulously researched using multiple authoritative sources including the U.N., U.S. Board on Geographic Names, and policies of individual governments. Accurate place names use a combination of conventional English names, official national names, and standard transliterations for non-Latin alphabets. Drawn in Winkel Tripel projection with distortions minimized unlike other World maps (e.g. Greenland is shown the same size as Argentina, not South America). Corner inset maps feature vegetation, land use, population density, and north and south polar regions. Mural maps are printed on a tear-resistant, coated paper for strength, color protection, and long life. The coating resists dirt and dust and may be cleaned with a slightly dampened cloth. The mural can be hung using heavy duty (clay based) wallpaper paste.
