Editable SVG

The SVG world map that’s actually editable.

Every country is a separate, named vector layer. Color it in the Mappeus editor and export — or grab the raw SVG and edit by hand in Figma or Illustrator.

Clean monochrome vector world map with every country as a separate layer
The hand-crafted Mappeus world map — 21,500+ downloads since 2015.

The problem

Most “editable” SVG maps aren’t.

You know the routine: download a free SVG, open it, and find one welded blob of paths, unnamed layers, or country borders that fall apart when you change a fill. “Editable” should mean every country is its own named layer.

This map has been that since 2015 — downloaded over 21,500 times on Shutterstock. Now it’s free, and better: the Mappeus editor colors it for you, so most edits never touch a design tool at all.

How it works

Two ways to use it.

01 — Fast

Color it in the editor

Select countries, apply colors and a legend, and export an SVG that keeps every layer intact.

02 — Manual

Get the raw SVG + PDF

Grab the free download from the homepage and edit it by hand — Figma, Illustrator, Sketch, Affinity.

03 — Both

Round-trip it

Start in the editor, export SVG, and fine-tune typography or effects in your design tool.

Use cases

What designers do with it.

Why Mappeus

Built for the map, not the software.

Faster than design tools

No layers to ungroup, no countries to hunt for. Select, color, export — minutes, not hours.

Looks intentional by default

Hand-crafted map geometry, curated themes and precise brand colors keep every export presentation-ready.

The right file, automatically

Pick where the map is going — Mappeus prepares the correct format, size and resolution for that destination.

Everything stays editable

SVG exports keep every country as a separate named layer for Figma, Illustrator, Sketch or Affinity.

FAQ

Good questions.

Is every country really a separate layer?

Yes — every country is its own named group of paths. Recolor France without touching Germany.

Which tools open it cleanly?

Figma, Adobe Illustrator, Sketch and Affinity Designer all open it with the layer structure intact.

Is the SVG free to use?

Yes — free for personal and commercial use. The raw download is available from the homepage; editor exports currently carry a small “Made with Mappeus” credit.

Editor export vs. raw download — which should I take?

If you want colored countries, use the editor — it’s faster and the export stays fully editable. Take the raw SVG when you want to start from a blank map.
