Question

You saw above that maps do not just show the names of places and the distances between them. They can also be used to show different kinds of information like the nature of the terrain (hilly, rocky, plain, etc.), economic activities of people, languages spoken, literacy, etc. Usually, a map focuses only on one aspect. Such maps are called "Thematic Maps". There are, for example, political maps which give information about mandals, districts, states, countries, capitals, etc. Some are physical maps which show mountains, rivers, plateaus, etc. Some are "Land Use Maps" which show how people use land. Question: Why are thematic maps useful? Please answer me, please.
