A map gives you a graphic representation of all or part of your country.

|
.s1
|
|
Your own sectors as well as sea, mountains, wasteland and unowned
|
|
wilderness and plains show up as a designation mnemonic (see
|
|
\*QSector-types\*U). Other sectors appear as question marks
|
|
(\*Q?\*U).
|
|
.s1
|
|
Examples:
|
|
.EX map -9:18,-8:5
|
|

|
|
in the area specified.
