Help!! Need current world map that shows all conflict zones - pronto!
Trying to make a displayer, and just realized what I really need is a nice map of the world that shows all the current conflict zones (meaning, armed conflict).

Anyone have one? A link, please?

You guys rock! I know I'll have 5 links within 5 minutes.

Woo hoo!

Thanks in advance!

2. UN's ReliefWeb has a big map section, lots about conflicts
Edited on Sat Oct-02-04 08:09 PM by Eye and Monkey
This is the UN's section mostly for humanitarian organizations-kinda stuff - very good for conflicts.

Home is http://www.reliefweb.int/w/rwb.nsf

Maps Centre link in left-hand column.

You can also try www.doctorswithoutborders.org - but I'm not sure whether they have exactly the map you're looking for
