Country errors in map of Europe

[Michel G]

Hi,

 

We just published a map of Europe at http://ec.europa.eu/economy_finance/thematic_articles/article13288_en.htm

 

Our readers found 2 errors:

 

- Rhodes Island is not part of Turkey but is part of Greece (small island between Crete and Turkey)

 

- Faroe Islands are not part of UK, but are part of Denmark

 

 

 

Also we found that

 

- Cyprus should be divided into 2 territories

 

 

 

Please correct this map ASAP.

Hi,

 

I'm afraid to say that RhodeIslands is a state in USA.For the Europe part please check the Europe(allCountries) map.Yes we do have individual Cyprus map with two regions, I.e. Cyprus(Region).

Thanks. I just learned about the existence of Rhodes island in the USA.

 

 

 

However, the problem I quoted is not related to the US but to the map of Europe "FCMap_Europe.swf", which contains the following errors:

 

 

 

1. The Greek island of Rhodes (see Wikipedia) appears to be part of Turkey: should be Greece !

 

 

 

2. The Faroe Islands (see Wikipedia) appear to belong to UK: should be Denmark!

 

 

 

3. Cyprus appears to be one country: should be divided into 2 parts, Cyprus and a the north of the island attached to Turkey.

 

 

 

4. And I will pass on the Rock of Gilbraltar which belongs to UK, not Spain. It might appear as a detail but in this FCMap_Europe.swf, other some entities like Liechtenstein, Monaco are well represented.

 

 

 

Thank you for revising the FCMap_Europe.swf map.
