Answer:

Special-Purpose Maps

Step-by-step explanation:

Physical maps are maps that illustrate significant physical features of an area, such as rivers, mountain ranges, large lakes, etc. Political maps do not contain physical features. Instead, they show the government borders of counties, states, countries, districts, etc. They also mark the location of major cities, towns, important roads, capitals, etc. In other words, political maps basically show significant areas that were established by man, and not by nature. Special purpose maps give information on a specific topic(s). This could be even very specific things from the number of ducks living in a country, to the number of people with mustaches in a province, to the abundance of coal in an area. There are many topics from which you can base special-purpose maps off of.
