I've collected, for a training course, a dataset of the region of 
Bosnia-Herzegovina which includes some layers from naturalearth.com and 
VMAP0, two bands of a a landsat tile (4 & 3 for an NDVI exercise) the 
SRTM coverage for that region, and an OSM file of Sarajevo. Zipped up 
with 7z it comes to 100 MB. Unzipped it's over 300 MB.
All sources are unfettered with licencing problems.
