    Default Geography Help Needed

    I have a map that my friend drew for me years ago, but its only the outlines of the continents (No country borders or geographical features).

    I was wondering if I uploaded the blank map, if any of you have a deep enough grasp of geography to fill in where the mountains, rivers, forests, deserts, etc. would be.

    This free supplement (an excerpt from one of their books) gives exactly that information. Better to teach a man to fish, eh?
