It:<br>

Hi OSGeo Live people,<br>
<br>
There are already good suggestions.<br>
<br>
If you need more, I would propose:<br>
<br>
- using OSM data of Dar, but not the OSM base rendering<br>
- maybe another existing rendering (1 example:<br>
<a href="https://opentopomap.org/#map=15/-6.81422/39.30086" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://opentopomap.org/#map=1<wbr>5/-6.81422/39.30086</a>)<br>
- some examples of real map here: <a href="http://ramanihuria.org/data/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://ramanihuria.org/data/</a><br>
- maybe asking a skilled QGIS user to render a map<br>
<br>
- if you want to compose an image, you could go with pictures of people<br>
- I do not like the idea of animals<br>
- only, why not the national animal, the giraffe<br>
<br>
All the best<br>
<br>
