The EI website indicates Antarctica is not identified as a continent. Is it shown on the globe?

Yes, it is shown just like in any other globe. It's shown in yellow (don't know why not white).

I gave the globe as a gift and so I cannot answer your question. I have not seen it in a year.

Hey, all the countries on a continent are the same color. So Africa is red, Europe is green, Asia is blue, and Americas is orange. There is a key at the very bottom. Let me know if you have any other questions, I'd be glad to help!

No china.and it isnt goose down. It is just regular poly filled. Misinterpreted information.

On the bottom of my unit, the country is.....Wait, you have to guess....I will give you a clue....It begins with the letters, "Ch". No, it is not Chile. Give up? Sorry, it is none other than, China, and not Italy.

I thought it was just North America, but I could be wrong. Looking at the product features now, it says "Preloaded maps for North America and Europe, includes over 8 million points of interest."

The globe is current as far as my experience so far. It is an excellent value. I highly recommend the gimbal feature that makes details in the southern hemisphere easier to examine.

No- it is not a touch activated globe. Just the buttons on the bottom ask you questions and you can refer to the globe

Both. It includes countries, major cities, islands, rivers, lakes, oceans, seas, water currents, mountain ranges, flags of all the countries, longitude/latitude and so much more! It's amazing!

The globe shows major rivers and there are names where it is not too cluttered up with towns, etc.For example the San Joaquin and Sacramento Rivers along with their tribs are shown, yet no names appear.While the Snake, Colorado and Mississippi are all labeled. I'd recommend a larger globe if you need that detail (given that California is but an inch long at this scale.

Yes! Now, I'm not a geographical major of any sort but after scrutiny and close examination, it appears to be current. I do anticipate some global changes in the near future IE; Ukrain & Middle East but that's not an anomaly by any means, so you must accept the fact that any Globe purchase comes with the risk of becoming outdated or even obsolete as the world turns, so to speak. If you check the manufacturers website, it appears as though quality control is a key component of their success, at least I was convinced. To sum it all up, I have been very pleased with my purchase as it is both functional and a nice (furniture) accessory. Best wishes...

I don't know. I only saw them listed together. But it's a better world map than a bunch of others that cost the same or more for just the world map alone!

No, this is a typical globe that shows countries,oceans, has raised relief for the mountains. I think it is a great globe for the price.

As far as I know it has maps of North America, but I didn't check for which countries when I updated the maps

It says Made in USA on the map surface. That's good, but don't be fooled by the brassy looking base/equator piece. It's a painted metal. The globe itself is OK, but the whole piece is not a nice piece of furniture.

States ? Of which country ? Odd question. There are other states/provinces in the world as well. If you mean the states in the US, then remember you are buying a globe - think globally now!
