How to make a blank Vatican map

  1. Open the Vatican map. Start from the panel above, which is already the editor. What a click paints here is the outline. The map is one shape, so a legend of one or two entries is usually all it needs.
  2. 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.
  3. Fill the shape. Pick a colour or a pattern and click the outline. Add text, an image or a second country from the world map if the shape alone is not the whole picture.
  4. 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

  • Vatican as one outline, drawn at the editor's full detail.
  • Vatican beside Italy 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.
  • A legend you write yourself, with a heading, dragged wherever the map has room.
  • Text, arrows and images placed anywhere on the map.
  • 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 Vatican map

Vatican on a map of its own

Most maps draw the Vatican too small to see. This one is the outline alone, at the detail the editor keeps for it, which is the starting point for a poster, a title card, a logo or a diagram that needs the real shape and nothing else.

Vatican beside its neighbours

The same outline can sit on the world map with any other countries you pick, each coloured separately, with a legend that says what the colours mean. That is the map for anything that does not stop at one shoreline.

The Vatican exported as a vector

The SVG export keeps the outline as a path, so the shape can go into a slide, a sticker or another drawing tool at any size without going soft.

The Vatican with its neighbours

The world map can carry the Vatican and Italy 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

What can I colour on the Vatican map?

One shape: the outline of the Vatican, as the editor draws it. There is no subdivision data for it on this site, so the map is the whole place at once. Text, images and a legend can still go anywhere on it.

Which countries border the Vatican on this map?

Italy. That is read from the world map's own geometry: the countries whose outlines share the border with the Vatican. Each one has a map page of its own, linked above.

Is the Vatican on a bigger map here too?

Yes. The Vatican is one of the countries on the Europe map, and on the world map, where it can be opened into its own regions beside its neighbours at theirs.

Can I colour regions inside the Vatican?

Not here: the site has no subdivision data for the Vatican that meets its data policy, so the map is the outline. If that changes the regions appear on this page automatically, because the page is generated from the same files the editor draws.

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.
