Mental Map

http://www.geography.hunter.cuny.edu/~tbw/ncc/Notes/chapter.2.outline.html

This is an example of a mental map.  A mental map portrays a personal perception and interpretation of the world.  This map portrays the United States, in particular Michigan and the areas around it.  Michigan is larger and more prominent than the rest of the country because the creator of the map is from Michigan is therefore that area is of more importance and much more detail about that area is known.
