What the Peru map covers
The Peru map on this page is drawn from 26 departments, each one a separate clickable shape. By mapped area the largest is Loreto (about 375,300 km², 29% of the country's mapped surface); the smallest is Callao at about 29 km². The two differ by more than a thousandfold on the same map, so the small ones need a zoom before they are easy to hit. The mapped outline reaches from 18°S to 0°S and spans roughly 13° of longitude.

Tips for coloring the Peru map
- With 26 departments you have a comfortable number for a 4–6 color scheme: group them by whatever you are showing, then label each group once in the legend.
- Loreto alone covers about 29% 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.
- Printing in greyscale? The stripes and dots fill patterns stay distinguishable where two similar shades merge, and the colorblind-safe palette avoids the red–green pairing.
