A thematic map depicts a geographical area and uses a theme to tell you more information about that area. It can vary with themes of politics, economy, social, etc. The map above shows the ratio of male to female income along with the percentage of seats women held in parliament in the year 2006. It is a geographical map of the world that allows the viewer to be aware of more information of that area.
