To calculate the area of a country on a map, you would need to use the scale provided on the map and measure the dimensions of the country using a ruler. Then, you would use the scale to convert the measurements to the actual area of the country. Another way is to use a geographic information system (GIS) software that can calculate the area based on a digital map of the country.

A map scale shows on a map?

The small map within a larger map is called an "overview map". Much like a regular map, the map contained by the overview map often shows the region of the larger map within the context of the larger area.
