Choropleth maps are a type of thematic map that express population or any other characteristic through shading and/or proportional relations between specific regions. According to the source, the choropleth map makes it easy to decipher the designated information between areas. For example, in the map above of Australia the percentage of the population that takes part in the Anglican religion. The darker the shading the higher the Anglican population. The lighter the shading, the smaller the Anglican population.
