What does a map showing units such as countries, states, provinces, districts, etc. in different colors represent?

  1. Rivers

  2. Tourism geography

  3. Political map

  4. Traditional geography

The correct answer is: Political map

A map showing units such as countries, states, provinces, districts, etc. in different colors represents a political map. Political maps are designed to show governmental boundaries of countries, states, provinces, and cities, along with major bodies of water, such as rivers and lakes. The colors and boundaries on a political map help to distinguish between different countries or regions and are especially useful for understanding political divisions and territories. This makes option C, political map, the correct answer.
