A cartogram is a type of map where another variable, such as Prevalence of HIV, is substituted in place of area when drawing the size of the country. Select the map on the right to view the size of countries based on prevalence of HIV.
One of the best websites available for examining a variety of variables via cartograms is World Mapper - http://www.worldmapper.org/
Go to World Mapper and select A-Z Map Index to view all the maps available. Select two of these and embed them into your blog and then write about what each shows and some reasons explaining the distribution. Make sure you read the information available, including the .pdf poster that includes some excellent information about each map.
