Atlases
An atlas is a collection of maps; it is typically a bundle of maps of Earth or a region of Earth.
Atlases have traditionally been bound into book form, but today many atlases are in multimedia formats. In addition to presenting geographic features and political boundaries, many atlases often feature geopolitical, social, religious and economic statistics. They also have information about the map and places in it.

Still, this atlas breathes,
amidst the loss and sparks,
a world that ebbs
and seeks its flow.
Its paths unclear,
yet set in time
at traveller’s will.
