World map divided into countries. Political maps of the world
Hello to all readers and subscribers of my blog 🙂Today I have prepared for you an article about what it is political map peace. I will also explain a couple of terms for a clearer picture.
In the narrow sense of the word it is geographic map globe, on which all the countries of the world are indicated (a list of all countries of the world with capitals is possible). And in a broad sense - it is a compilation of information about the political geography of the world.
On the modern political map of the world, you can count 236 states and territories. The political map displays absolutely all changes that affect countries, be it a change in its territory, a merger with another country, the disintegration of the country into several territories, a change in the capital, a change in the name of the country, etc. The political map also displays the country’s form of government and government device.
Changes on the political map are of two types:
- qualitative - change of government structure, form of government, acquisition of sovereignty...
- quantitative - exchange of lands between states, disintegration of states, their unification, annexation of new lands after the war...
Currently, on the modern political map one can see more qualitative than quantitative changes.
All countries, from the point of view of international law, are divided into 2 types:
- dependent territories (overseas territories, trusteeship colonies, etc.);
- independent countries.
Independent state owns sovereignty, territory and borders, has an effective system for managing the life of society, international recognition, pursues an independent domestic and foreign policy, and also has its own national attributes - anthem, flag and coat of arms.
In the 1990s, dependent countries accounted for about 0.7% of the land area and less than 0.3% of the population. That is, as is clear from this, there are not so many dependent territories left in the world, but echoes of the past still keep some territories in check; in total, they can be counted a little more than 50-60, according to various sources. But, of course, all these territories are not large pieces of land, islands, mainly in the Caribbean and Australia and Oceania.
And let's, of course, find out what a colony is?
Colony (from the Latin word colonia - settlement) - several meanings below:
1) a territory or country that is under the authority of a foreign state (the metropolis), it is deprived of economic and political independence and is governed on the basis of a special regime.
2) A settlement that was founded by ancient peoples (Greeks, Phoenicians, Romans) in foreign countries.
3) Settlement of migrants from another region or country.
4) A community of fellow countrymen in a foreign city or country; fraternity.
5) In biology - a set of colonial organisms.
Temporary joint settlements of birds are also sometimes called a colony.
That's all, this is a short article so as not to overload you too much 😉 But everything is still ahead, I am preparing a lot of interesting material especially for you. That's all for now, see you again on the pages of the blog about our planet Earth.

We would like to make an early announcement of an absolutely unique and breakthrough service for planning independent travel, which our team is developing. A beta version will be released next year. The service will be an aggregator of everything possible and necessary for planning a trip to any country. In this case, everything will be on one page and one click away from the goal. Distinctive feature of this service from other similar ones, although there are no close analogues, the thing is that we will not give you the most profitable affiliate programs without alternative, as everyone else does. You will always have a choice from almost all possible options.
Let's give an example of what everyone does and what we won't do: all travel sites usually take you along this kind of uncontested path: Air tickets - aviasales.ru, accommodation - booking.com, transfer - kiwitaxi.ru. With us you will have access to all options without priority to anyone.
You can support the project and get access much earlier than the start of open testing by contacting [email protected] with the phrase “I want to support.”
