Political maps are used for the sole purpose of showing boundaries within political fields (wether it be countries, states, cities, etc.). For example, a political map of the world would have all the outlines of the countries, showing their borders. Of course, other items might be included; for example, cities (capital cites, major cities, etc.) might be included.
