Description Africa Travel Reference Map The Africa Travel Reference Map from ITMB is a double-sided map in 1:5,000,000 scale. All of Africa is portrayed on this map, including the off-lying islands of Cape Verde, the Canaries, Madeira, Socotra, the Comoros, and Madagascar. Although areas of border dispute are shown, boundaries are shown as they are, not as various powers want them to be. Finally, ITMB has used English or French names, or names commonly known in English throughout the map. ITMB are map makers, not panderers to political correctness, and they refuse to call Cairo anything except Cairo! Generally speaking, place names in Africa have a common nomenclature in varying languages, so Cote d’Ivoire is easily recognizable as Ivory Coast and Khartoum is Khartoum.
