The following are all maps that I have made. They are provided for anyone to use for free so long as no alternations are made to the images.

European Union 2003
European Union 2004
On the 1st of May 2004 Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia joined the European Union. Due to a failure to reach an agreement on the reunification of Cyprus, only the Southern half of the island was able to join (the North voted yes but the South rejected the reunification deal). All of Cyprus rather than only the Southern half is shown as part of the E.U. on the map because no country except Turkey officially recognises the Turkish republic of Northern Cyprus.
