Peters Projection World Map

Peters Projection World Map displays every country at its true relative size, correcting the land area distortion found in standard Mercator maps. This Gall-Peters equal-area world map is the only authorized version sold in North America, exclusively through Map Shop. The updated edition features revised country boundaries, current city labels, and accurate bodies of water names that outperform older Peters Projection prints still circulating online.

A continent-based color scheme groups nations by region while varying shades between borders, making each country easy to identify at a glance. High-quality inks on archival-grade paper give the print sharp detail and long-lasting color. Adopted by UNESCO, international aid organizations, and classrooms worldwide, this equal-area map projection offers a less politically biased view of the globe than traditional wall maps.

Use it as a classroom world map, office display, or educational reference. The proportionally accurate landmasses spark real geographic awareness in a way flat Mercator projections simply cannot. Also available as a pull-down classroom map. Multiple finishing options, including lamination, framing, and foam core mounting, are available from Map Shop.
