The same data layers as the 2D world map, on a rotatable globe. Drag or use the arrow keys to rotate, + and − to zoom, Enter to select the country at the centre. Every country is also in the list below, and the 2D map stays the primary view.
An alternative view, not a replacementA globe hides half the world and is harder to read for comparison. It is offered as an exploration aid. It loads about 20 KB of outlines plus the layer’s history, has no auto-rotation, and works without it: if it cannot load, nothing else on the site is affected. Natural Earth outlines (public domain), simplified; de facto boundaries, not an endorsement of any claim.
