there isn't any physical things shown, only names of places and it lists the population of places and waterway names
There are dozens of different types of maps, designed for different purposes. You might use a political map to see the borders of countries, states and counties, and to see the locations of capital cities and seats of various levels of government.
The pUrpose of political maps is to show national boundaries.
Political maps show states in different colors. You should be able to see capital cities. They are common maps

Geographical, physical, and political maps
a physical map shows the land features, a political map shows boundaries and major city's, and thematic maps have a theme to them.

Both physical and political maps show the outlines of land and sea. Political maps show human made features - countries, states, cities, roads, railways, ferry routes, etc. Physical maps show natural features such as mountains, rivers, sea depth, etc. Most common maps are actually combinations showing both physical and political features.
My thinking is that physical and political maps both have labels, labeling the cities, countries, or important areas.

They both show capitals
Political maps list primarily cities and countries. If they include landforms at all, they are always represented in two dimensions. Topographical maps represent landforms with varying colors to show elevation, making it much easier to see and understand what the landform is and how it looks.
