Thematic & Natural History Map | Biodiversity, Landscapes & Culture | Large Wall Format (789 × 513 mm) | Premium Finishes

A vibrant exploration of one of the world’s most biologically rich regions, Indonesia — Theme Map reveals the extraordinary diversity of the Indonesian archipelago. Published by National Geographic in February 1996, this beautifully illustrated map accompanied the feature article “Irian Jaya: Indonesia’s Wild Side” and a companion political map of Indonesia.

From dense rainforests and remote islands to rare species and unique ecosystems, it presents a compelling view of a nation defined by nature, scale, and diversity.
