Blank map of Micronesia

Choose the file by the tool you are using. For a slide, take the PNG: its background is transparent, so the map of Micronesia sits on your theme colour. For a design tool, take the SVG. For paper, take the PDF on A4 or Letter. Each version, Outline only and With borders, comes in all three.

A slide first

Place the PNG on a title slide, then add a heading beside it and a colour to each of four shapes if you want the areas to read as a split. Colour them with your presentation's own shape tools, since the file itself carries none. The editor can colour them for you through Customise this map.

A design in a vector tool

Open the SVG in Illustrator, Inkscape or Figma and the shape is yours to restyle: a thick line for a cover, a pale fill behind a table, four areas picked out in four brand colours. The political blank map of Micronesia is With borders, which keeps the lines between the four areas; use Outline only when a plain silhouette is the point.

A fact box for each area

In a report or handout, put With borders at the centre of a page and add a short fact box for each of Chuuk State, Kosrae, Pohnpei State and Yap State, placed round the edge. The list further down this page gives the names to copy. Younger children can trace Outline only on thin paper and cut it out for a class display, with a colour of their own for each area they later learn to name.
