States and Provinces
Most state and province outlines use Natural Earth's 1:10m Admin 1 dataset, version 5.1.1 (May 2022), released into the public domain. Selected source units are combined into their parent regions for the country and state selectors.
These outlines are cartographic snapshots. Names and boundaries may not reflect every later administrative change. Countries without available subdivisions offer a National outline.
Nepal Provinces
Nepal province boundaries: Survey Department of Nepal; OCHA FISS; geoBoundaries (William & Mary geoLab). The 2020 ADM1 boundary snapshot is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 IGO.
We use the source's simplified geometry, normalize its metadata, and update the display names Province 1 and Province 2 to Koshi and Madhesh. Outlines may be simplified further for display and printing.
