I think I made it originally for 11x17 (large paper) and in high resolution (300 dpi (normal computer screen resolution is 72 dpi)). You could burn it on a CD or copy it to a flash drive and get it printed out in color at your local copy shop. @Valatunda - :) All you have to do now is remember Okinawa is at the bottom and everything else is somewhere in between. @Melissa - thanks!

Anyway, thank you for this. Hokkaido looks a bit like a manta ray on that map. Anyway, thank you for this.

I have been thinking of having a map of Japan in my computer room, but haven't gotten around to it, so this is perfect! I guess good things really do come to those who wait! I'm not good at geography at all either, thankfully my Japanese friends don't hold it against me! Surely it will be impressive when I am familiar with the geography! Thanks so much for this!

As an American who lives in Germany and travels abroad quite extensively, I just had to think about how often I'm asked about where I come from - to which I quickly answer, "Pennsylvania". The amazing thing is that they very often know exactly where PA is, but I must (shamefully) admit that I couldn't name even one Japanese prefecture. I'll be working to change that now though.

It may be useful if you want to learn where the prefectures are. I made some JavaScript quizzes years ago to practice here: http://thejapanesepage.com/kenpage.php It can be helpful when meeting a Japanese person to let them know you actually know where their home city is located. :) Thanks!

That's awesome that you're offering it for free :) Although I didn't know you were selling it in the first place. ;) Thanks so much for the map!
