<font size="+1">I would be grateful if someone would tell me where I
can get a shapefile <br>
for the countries of eastern and western Europe. I want just
polygons of<br>
country borders. A few major cities would be nice, but I do NOT
need <br>
streets. I'll want to be able to color each country according to
my own <br>
list of attributes. I did find an ESRI .lpk file, which I
unzipped <br>
using 7zip, but it does not seem to contain any shapefiles (two
.gdb <br>
folders containing dozens of files with extensions I don't know).
<br>
Geofabrik has individual European countries, including streets,
but <br>
that's more detail than I want. Thanks for any advice you can
offer.<br>
