For this exercise I was tasked on creating a political map of Africa that included all country labels, as well as labels for main terrain features. Some examples of those features are rivers, lakes, mountains, and gulfs. With that we also had to use the five fundamentals of map design to make an ascetically pleasing map. Finding colors that went well together for both the countries and for the figure-ground presented a challenge. Also, some of the labels were especially tricky to place and required a significant amount of thought and trial and error.
