The Full Wiki maps

NEW: Use our interactive maps to visualise the Haiti earthquake and the international response.



The Full Wiki has created the ultimate mashup of Google Maps and Wikipedia. Now for any article, you can see a map of every location mentioned.

This tool lets you see at a glance where the world's tallest buildings , major riots, disasters even UFO sightings.

The map and the article are linked throughout. Click on a map marker and it jumps to that part of the article. Click on an article marker and it will show you that location on the map.

See for example our tourism fact map. If we click on Bangkok (Q), for example, we can see the relevant part of the article and learn that it's the third most visited city in the world. Or zooming into Europe and clicking on Nice, Wikipedia tells us it was one of the first and best established resorts in the French Riveria.

History buffs may like the causes of World War II, the history of slavery and the history of Western civilisation.

Some more examples:

  • See what happened all around the world in 1945.
  • See where the drug trade is carried out.
  • Barack Obama has the most international background of any recent US president. See it mapped.

If that's not enough, check out our big list of suggested map topics.

Topic trees

Topic trees make it easy to view a topic from many points of view. Different sentences are shown in a tree and split into branches when the wording is different.

The bigger the font, the more often the words are kept, which allows you to see what's most important about a topic. It also lets you to easily find previous revisions of Wikipedia articles based on the language that they used. If you click on the little article icons, it'll take you the revision that contained that phrase.
