Unclassed Choropleth Map

An unclassed choropleth maps' numeric attribute values are converted directly into proportional degrees of shading; the higher the attribute value, the darker the shade. It is considered 'unclassed' because it uses a continuous scale, not interval breaks. This map displays the fertility rates of European women; the countries with the highest/lowest levels are immediately evident.
