    Everyone needs help finding their way from time to time, and in those instances Google Maps comes in very handy. Google has most of the world mapped and ready for navigation, but not everywhere. There is work to be done, and Google is on it. Today, Google has announced 19* new countries that are ready for Google Maps navigation.

    The majority of the additions are in Africa and the Caribbean/Central/South American regions, but there are also a few countries in the Asia/Pacific, and one little island in the Mediterranean. As you'll notice, we have the number listed as 19*, because Google has Trinidad and Tobago listed separately, but that is a single country, and we're trying to be accurate. The new countries added are:

    Americas: Bahamas, Bolivia, Guyana, Honduras, Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago
    Africa: Angola, Botswana, Madagascar, Malawi, Mali, Mauritius, Mozambique, Namibia, Tanzania
    Asia/Pacific: Fiji, Nepal, Sri Lanka:love:
    Mediterranean: Malta

    Interestingly, Google isn't listing any of these new additions as having limited coverage, which means you will get driving and walking directions at the very least. We have confirmed that is the case in Jamaica and Fiji, and assume it to be true for the rest.
