Too Much Detail

This atlas is excellent for the size and the amount of detail per country. It includes mountains, rivers, and lots of facts. This is great if you want all this detail but it is not what I was looking for. It is lacking a birdseye view of each continent with all the countries and their relationship to each other. For example: Africa- where is Nigeria in relation to the Congo? Only its border countries are shown. It does have, however, a nice locator icon showing each country's location on the globe.
