Color the countries of South America for a backpacking route, a Mercosur chart, a classroom map of the Amazon basin, or a data choropleth, then download the result as PNG or SVG with your own legend and title.
15 regions: the twelve sovereign countries from Colombia and Venezuela down to Chile and Argentina, plus the Falkland Islands and Trinidad and Tobago. French Guiana is on the map too. It is an overseas region of France, so it's drawn (and colored) as France. That's how the sovereign-boundary dataset works, and the map is honest about it rather than hiding the territory.
Have numbers instead of colors in mind? Open Data and paste two spreadsheet columns: country names or ISO codes with a value, like Brazil, 216. The map shades every matched region from low to high with a numeric legend. Pick the number of classes, equal-count or equal-range breaks, and a color ramp, then download the choropleth map as PNG or SVG.
Need an empty outline? Download before you color anything and you get a clean, printable blank South America map with every country border drawn, as a PNG for printing or an SVG you can edit in Figma, Illustrator, or Inkscape. Turn on Show names in Style to label the countries, or leave them off for a quiz or worksheet.
The classic Patagonia-to-Cartagena backpacking route with arrows per leg; Mercosur and Andean Community membership; Copa América and football-rivalry maps; Amazon rainforest coverage for teaching; export or population choropleths pasted from a spreadsheet.
French Guiana is legally part of France, and the map's Natural Earth source draws sovereign boundaries, so the region carries France's color. Select it and you're coloring France.
Yes, the Falklands are a separate colorable region, as is Trinidad and Tobago at the northern edge of the map.

In your own browser. Nothing is uploaded; each map autosaves on your device, and Save project gives you a file you can back up or open on another computer.
The same editor works on the world map, the Europe map, the Asia map, the Africa map, the North America map, the Oceania map, and the US states map. Every map keeps its own colors, legend, and title, so you can work on several at once.
