World Hema Political (Pacific) Classic 1010 x 650mm Large Wall Map

A beautifully rendered political map of the world with a unique Asia-Pacific focus — ideal for the home, office, or classroom

The Hema Pacific-Centred World Political Map offers a fresh and regionally relevant view of the globe. Unlike traditional Atlantic-centred maps, this design places the Pacific Ocean and surrounding countries — including Australia, New Zealand, Southeast Asia, and the Pacific Islands — at the centre of the world. This perspective not only better reflects the Asia-Pacific’s global connections, but also provides a clearer understanding of geographic relationships for viewers in this part of the world.

This map is more than just informative — it’s designed to be visually captivating. Countries are shaded in subtle, muted pastels that distinguish political boundaries without overwhelming the eye, while the oceans are shaded in rich, graduated blues that hint at underwater topography and depth. The result is a clean, modern look that balances form and function.
