When a map shows mountains and lakes and their altitudes, it is called a Topographical Map.

∙ 13y agoTopographic maps show mountains and lakes with contour lines to represent elevation changes and symbols to represent bodies of water. These maps provide detailed information about the terrain, including the shape and height of the land and the location of water features like lakes and rivers.
Topographical map or contour map.
Elevation maps are used to show that the Himalaya mountains are the highest in the world. These maps visualize the varying heights of land surfaces, with the Himalayas standing out prominently due to their towering peaks, including Mount Everest, the highest point on Earth.
Physical maps show geographical features such as mountains, rivers, and landforms, while political maps display borders, cities, and countries. Both maps provide information about the Earth's surface, but physical maps focus on natural features, while political maps emphasize political boundaries and human settlements.
Physical and political maps both display geographic features such as rivers, mountains, and cities. However, political maps also show boundaries, countries, and regions, while physical maps focus more on the natural landscape of an area.
A physical map is the one that shows things like rivers, mountains and plateaus. The proper name for them however is a topographic maps.

No. Some maps can show the whole world while others can show national parks, mountains, hills, etc. But all maps show the way to something.

Physical maps show physical and geologic features such as rivers and mountains. Political maps show artificial boundaries such as state lines and national borders.

it's usually a map were all the lakes, sea, rivers, mountains, plateaus, and etc are at
Political maps show borders, cities, and capitals, while physical maps show topographic features like mountains, rivers, and landforms. Both types of maps can include labels and legends to help explain the information displayed. Additionally, both political and physical maps use colors and symbols to represent different geographical features.
My thinking is that physical and political maps both have labels, labeling the cities, countries, or important areas.
