     This database produces a map of China, including provincial
     boundaries.

_F_o_r_m_a_t:

     The data file is merely an assignment to a character string which
     specifies the name of an environment variable which contains the
     base location of the binary files used by the map drawing
     functions. This environment variable ('R_MAPDATA_DATA_DIR' for the
     datasets in the mapdata package) is set at package load time.
