Description

A political Earth globe in which every country is its own object. It is rebuilt from scratch with current public-domain borders, and works for infographics, news graphics, education, games and product shots.

Each country is a closed, slightly raised piece that sits on a transparent glass ocean, under a graticule of meridians and parallels every 15 degrees. Countries are coloured with a seven-colour political scheme in which no two neighbours share a colour. You can select, recolour, lift, hide or animate any country on its own.

Included:
- High detail globe: 241 countries and territories (1:50 million borders), 466k triangles.
- Low detail globe: 177 countries (1:110 million borders), 111k triangles, for real-time use and background shots.
- Every country is named with its ISO code and English name, for example Country_ESP_Spain, and has its pivot at its own centre on the surface.
- The ocean sphere is the parent of everything, with its pivot at the globe centre: rotate it to spin the globe.
- Equirectangular (longitude/latitude) UVs on the countries, ocean and graticule, so any world map texture lines up.
- Seven country materials, a glass ocean material (alpha) and a navy graticule material; no texture files are needed.

Technical details:
- Diameter 1 m, standing on the ground at z = 0; scale it freely.
- Country pieces are raised 1.2 percent above the ocean surface and closed underneath, so they also read correctly through the glass from the far side.
- Only a handful of tiny atolls have pinched edges where the source coastline touches itself.
- Static model: no rig, no animation.

Formats: Blender 3.2 (Cycles and Eevee ready), 3ds Max 2022 (Physical materials), FBX, OBJ, glTF/GLB and USD. Each format includes the high and low globes and a scene with both side by side.

Borders: Made with Natural Earth (public domain). They show the de facto boundaries of Natural Earth's default world view. Disputed areas follow that dataset, not any particular official position.

All renders were made in Blender Cycles with the included scene.
