I wanted a large map of eastern/ central Europe that showed alot of city names because I am traveling alot in and around Germany. I ordered this with the map pins and they arrived very quickly to a APO address(less than 2weeks). However, about half the map is of Russia. The map comes as pictured and is in good condition. I think this is as good of map as i could have found anywhere so i wouldnt change my mind on my purchase but just be aware.

I needed a detailed map of Europe and this certainly provides the detail. However it is so packed with detail that it is sometimes difficult to find what I need. A very good, very detailed map.

A good map suitable for spreading out on the floor and studying. I'm writing a novel about Europe and I needed something on paper that I could fold up and carry with me from place to place. This was hard to find since most people appear to be using their phones these days to get directions. I'm very satisfied.

This is probably the best map of Europe in this size. It's laminated, decently thick paper, and it's roughly poster-sized. Its proportions are more square than most maps. It covers Russia to the Ural Mountains (which is generally considered to be the geographic boundary between Europe and Asia), all of Iraq, some of Iran, the most northerly parts of Africa, and Iceland in the northwest.The countries' border edges are shaded in color which makes them easy to discern as well as being visually appealing. The colors are not too garish, they're just right. It's a classier look than typical classroom posters. But the main appeal of this map is the great detail and bonuses that are found. It shows oil rigs in the North Sea with their names, major oil fields on land, sea/ocean depth in fathoms, the glaciers in Iceland and their names, historic city ruins such as Carthage and Nineveh, the Aral Sea - also showing its previous shorelines in 2000 and 1960, major roads (not named), major ferry routes, major airports, mountain ranges and peaks - with their heights. Contested territories (such as Crimea and West Bank) are colored in grey.Two small complaints: Some small countries are difficult to discern because they are of similar color (Belgium and the Netherlands for example). Also, the relative size difference of cities is not shown well; the largest cities (such as London, Moscow and Istanbul) should be shown with much larger lettering or dots to more realistically emphasize their huge size relative to the surrounding cities.Maps International also makes nice laminated wall maps in various sizes - some of which name the major highways. Their colors are more bold (which may or may not be a good thing), and city size differences are better distinguished. But these National Geographic 'Classic' maps do a better job of showing geographic features, as well as having an unbeatable classy look.

While doing a studying a study of the Second World War in Europe, I found it helpful to have a map of Europe for easy reference. This map has the advantage of being flat, unlike the one in my World Atlas.

The map is beautiful and nicely laminated. The only complaint I would have is that it became "wrinkled" during the shipping process, and that shows even when it has been professionally framed. Maybe there is a better way to ship it.

Should have read the dimensions of the map closer - its very small - not a great buy unless your putting it into a small place

Great looking map. Puts all the countries in perspective. Very attractive European map. Educational! A great learning experience. I now know where countries I was unfamiliar with are located.
