How to make a blank Niger map
- Open the Niger map. Start from the panel above, which is already the editor. What a click paints here is one region. There are 8 of them, all listed further down this page: check that list before you start, it is the whole of what this map can colour.
- Write the legend before you paint. Add one entry per category and say what it means in your own words. The legend is part of the exported image, so a map that made sense to you at midnight still makes sense to someone who sees it cold.
- Fill the regions. Every click paints one region. Fill everything in a baseline colour first and then paint the exceptions, or paste a table of regions and values and let the colour scale do it.
- Export or publish. Download a PNG, JPEG, SVG or PDF at the size you ask for, or publish for a link with a preview image.
What you can do
- All 8 regions, each a separate clickable shape.
- Niger beside Algeria, Benin and Burkina Faso and the rest of its neighbours on one map, from the custom map link below.
- Flat colours, or stripe, dot and checkerboard patterns for the categories that would otherwise look alike.
- Colour by numbers: paste a table of names and values and the map fills itself in on a scale you choose.
- A legend you write yourself, with a heading, dragged wherever the map has room.
- Names or codes printed on the regions, on or off, in a colour you pick.
- Backgrounds, borders and border colours are all editable, or turn the borders off entirely.
- PNG, JPEG, SVG and PDF export at the end, with nothing to install first.
Make your own blank Niger map
Where things happen in Niger
Which regions a project, a harvest, a language or a road network covers. Maps of African countries are usually drawn at the national outline by people who have never been there, so a map that shows the regions of Niger is already saying more than most.
Data by region
Census figures, rainfall, school enrolment, mobile coverage. Paste a table of regions and values and the map shades itself in bands you set, with a legend that says what each band means. A region that has no value stays white rather than pretending.
Where you have been in Niger
The regions you have visited, lived in, worked in or only passed through. Three colours and a legend that says what each one means, and 8 shapes is small enough to finish in one sitting.
Niger with its neighbours
The world map can carry Niger and Algeria, Benin, Burkina Faso, Chad, Libya, Mali and Nigeria on one board, each country coloured separately, and can open any of them into their own regions. That is the map for anything that does not stop at a border.

Common questions
How many regions are on the Niger map?
8, every one of them a separate shape you can click and fill. The list above runs from Agadez to Zinder. They are the first-level divisions of Niger as the source data draws them, credited on our credits page, so a merged or disputed area appears the way the source has it.
Which countries border Niger on this map?
Algeria, Benin, Burkina Faso, Chad, Libya, Mali and Nigeria. That is read from the world map's own geometry: the countries whose outlines share the border with Niger. Each one has a map page of its own, linked above.
Is Niger on a bigger map here too?
Yes. Niger is one of the countries on the Africa map, and on the world map, where it can be opened into its own regions beside its neighbours at theirs.
Can I colour something smaller than a region?
Not on this map. It works at region level, which is the level nearly every map of Niger is drawn at.
Can I put the names on the map itself?
Yes. Region labels can be switched on for the whole map, in a colour and size you choose, and you can write your own text for any region where the real name is too long to fit. On a busy map most people leave the labels off and let the legend carry it.
Do I need an account?
No. The editor opens straight away, the map stays in this browser while you work, and exporting an image never asks you to sign in. An account only matters if you want to publish a map at a link other people can open.
Can I use the exported map commercially?
The image is yours, and we ask for no credit: the only mark on it is the site address in small type in the bottom corner, and nothing is drawn across the map. Nothing from the map data is added to the picture either, because we only ship boundary data whose licence is satisfied by naming it on our credits page, so there is no credit line to print and nothing for you to pass on. Anything you add to the map stays your own.
