What the Kenya map covers
Kenya is drawn here as 8 individually colorable counties. By mapped area the largest is Rift Valley (about 181,700 km², 31% of the country's mapped surface); the smallest is Nairobi at about 754 km². That is a 241-fold difference across the same map, so the small ones need a zoom before they are easy to hit. The mapped outline reaches from 5°S to 5°N and spans roughly 8° of longitude. It sits on both sides of the equator. Some counties are drawn as more than one piece, which is why the map carries 9 outlines for 8 counties.

Tips for coloring the Kenya map
- At 8 counties there is no need for a gradient — 8 strongly contrasting solid colors will separate them at a glance, even in greyscale print.
- Rift Valley alone covers about 31% of the mapped area, so a shaded choropleth will always be dominated by it. If you are mapping a quantity, import your numbers and switch to the bubble view, which sizes circles by value instead of by land area.
- Your work is saved in this browser as you go, so a reload will not lose the counties you have already colored.
