Publisher Description: National Geographic's wall map of Scotland is one of the largest and most detailed maps of the country. The signature Classic style design uses a bright, easy-to-read color palette featuring blue oceans and stunning shaded relief that has been featured on National Geographic wall maps for over 75 years. This map includes hundreds of named places including primary and secondary towns, counties, political boundaries, infrastructure, and selected historical sites. Scotland is shown in its entirety including the Highlands, Southern Uplands, Isle of Skye, Outer Hebrides, Inner Hebrides, Orkney Islands and the Shetland Islands (shown in an inset map). The nine political council areas of Scotland are also clearly identified. The map is encapsulated in heavy-duty 1.6 mil laminate which makes the paper much more durable and resistant to the swelling and shrinking caused by changes in humidity. Laminated maps can be framed without the need for glass, so the fames can be much lighter and less expensive.
