Additional Information
Published during a period of significant transformation globally, this Central Intelligence Agency map of the second largest and most populous continent shows Africa as an emerging international power. Comprised of fifty-four sovereign nations and two de facto states, Africa bears a rich history made up of distinct cultures and traditions. The diverse geography of the vast continent varies from arid deserts to tropical rainforests, savannas, mountainous peaks, and thousands of miles of coastlines bordered by three oceans and the mediterranean sea. Rich in minerals and other natural resources, Africa has a long history of exporting these goods for international markets.
The twentieth century marked a period of relative instability as many nations gained independence from European colonial rule and faced challenges establishing new governments and institutions. This caused the redrawing and shifting of geopolitical boundaries, and the Central Intelligence Agency has been producing the most accurate international maps since 1941. Political and military leaders utilize CIA maps to develop policy and strategize operations. During the first two decades of the twenty-first century, Africa has grown into an economically and culturally emerging market.
Because of its size and unique proximity to Europe and the Middle East, Africa has very distinct cultural differences across regions ranging from Arab influences in the north from Morocco to Egypt and the iconic Swahili of eastern Africa. CIA maps are distinguished by their minimal aesthetic and signature style. This is an authentic piece of modern African cartography depicting it in a period of significant progress.
