Reason for the nomination:
The map contains disputable/erroneous country names that may confuse the readership of Wikipedia. Specifically, in 1999, the country listed as "MACEDONIA" had the official name of "FYROM" (see also https://en.wikipedia.org/key/North_Macedonia). As the map is dated in 2010, it violates international naming laws (see also https://en.wikipedia.org/key/Macedonia_naming_dispute), and requires proper and prompt revisions.
Given the sensitivity of the matter, the fact that even the current official name of the country is different (i.e., "Republic of North Macedonia"; see also https://en.wikipedia.org/key/North_Macedonia), and aiming to avoid misinforming (or even provoking) the general public and creating confusion with the Greek geographic and administrative unit of "Macedonia" (https://en.wikipedia.org/key/Macedonia_(Greece) ), I would suggest that the image is deleted or replaced with an accurate version as soon as possible.
