{{I|Mapping}} '''Mapping''' {{I|Mapperdonia}} is a type of film, almost exclusively produced as a YouTube video, in where a series of still images (sometimes animated) depicting political maps creates a narrative. People who create mapping content are self-dubbed '''Mappers'''. Most commonly, characters are displayed as political or corporate entities, such as countries, states, parties, or companies, yet individual fictional people occasionally are portrayed as characters. As opposed to simply the names of the countries, many mapping videos use countryballs to depict countries. Many mappers also use countryballs as public personas.
