The map
The map itself, and every figure and source on it, is open to everyone. Reading case studies is free within a monthly limit, and one you have already opened never counts again. Choose a pin to see what a country has, or a day to see the map as it stood then. Choosing an exam board changes how cards are labelled and counted, never what you can read.

Editions
Legend
A magenta pin marks a country with at least one case study. Countries in the edition on screen are named beside their pin, and so is whichever pin you point at. How many cards a country has is read out under the map.
Each tick under the map is one day. Solid magenta days published an edition, and choosing one hides everything published after it.
