What the Syria map covers

Syria is drawn here as 15 individually colorable governorates. By mapped area the largest is Homs (Hims) (about 50,100 km², 27% of the country's mapped surface); the smallest is Damascus at about 100 km². That is a 502-fold difference across the same map, so the small ones need a zoom before they are easy to hit. The mapped outline reaches from 32°N to 37°N and spans roughly 7° of longitude.

Tips for coloring the Syria map

With 15 governorates 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.
3 of the governorates are under 1% of the largest one's area. Scroll to zoom before clicking them, or type a name into the search box to jump straight to one.
Homs (Hims) alone covers about 27% 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.
