Description
Here is my economic-political map for what i called the "Important Countries", in other words countries we are mainly focusing. Mainly, we are focusing on Egypt, USA, China, North Korea, Iran, Germany, UK, France, Italy, Poland, Russia, and China. This is also a map that shows important civilizations, each given a different color. They given them because there were important events going on from the years 1930-2011. I hope you enjoy this map.Related content

Argentina, Indonesia, and New Zealand not important to you? Heresy!
At the Philippines is important to you...

Interesting. At least we seem to be slightly important then. Although I can guess why ;>.>
Also, what program are you using for these?

I think it would help if you defined what "important" means in your blurb at the bottom, I mean, my first reaction upon seeing this map was: "what about New Zealand? NZ's important!" But it's important to me because I live here and depending on the context it can be internationally important as well. We're important for dairy and meat trade worldwide, for a while there we were important for making movies, we're important to other trade contexts and there are a number of amazing historical things that have happened in the last hundred years because of or by New Zealanders... but, as far as population and political power - not so much.
If your definition of "unimportant" is a personal subjective thing, then expect more people to get crabby with you, because it's not fair to basically say people's countries aren't important but yours are, it can come off as a little arrogant. But if you define it and say that what you mean by "important" is... population, political power, important to specific wars, important because of wars.. whatever, it'll stop people being crabby with you.

i'm not saying it to be arrogant. I put the word important on because of the major events that are happening to people.

Oh, no, I never said I thought you were being arrogant, I was just pointing out that some people might take offence and interpret it that way.

oh, ok. Well I hope they don't think of it that way. after all, this is a map for major events.

Great map!
But maybe you should really add Indonesia, or is it too difficult to colour all that islands? XD

it takes a little time, but I don't think there is much going on here.

Wait, Nigeria and Indonesia aren't included, but Slovakia and Montenegro are?

there's not much going on with nigeria and indonesia. more important countries are like USA, china, italy, russia, germany, brazil, poland, france, Britain, Austria, and India.

this map makes me wonder what the most uninteresting country in the world is...
possibly Blandislavia, Beigeistan or the United Hamlets of Normalville

Is this from the perspective of an American ?

not always. Antarctica is not a country because there are no major settlements and there is few populations of us humans. Unless you believe in the Nazi-conspiracy about a German base there, making UFO's.

That didn't answer my question.

Why is the Congo not included, the deadliest conflict since WW2 happened there. 5.4 million people were killed.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
