The Map-the-World and Map-Maker teams at Google have been making some
major, and much needed, additions for Africa. With a large data push
yesterday, Google Maps has one of the most impressive sets of maps on
Africa that you can find.

There are now 27 more African countries that now have detailed maps, including:

Benin, Botswana, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cameroon, Cape Verde, Central
African Republic, Chad, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Djibouti,
Eritrea, Ethiopia, Gabon, Guinea, Gambia, Ghana, Ivory Coast,
Madagascar, Malawi, Mauritania, Mozambique, Niger, Nigeria, Reunion,
Sierra Leone, Somalia, and Togo.
