The map
Al-'Alam lies in Salah ad Din Governorate on the east bank of the Tigris, across the river from the Tikrit area. Like many towns along this stretch, it is shaped by the water: the built-up area follows the bank, and irrigated fields and groves form a green belt between the houses and the drier land further from the river.
On the map this produces a clear division. A strip of streets and plots runs roughly parallel to the Tigris, with lanes stepping down toward the fields and the river's curves drawn as a strong, flowing line. Beyond the cultivated band the landscape opens up, and roads leave town in long straight lines across flatter, sparser terrain.
The town is largely residential and agricultural, and its bond with the river is its defining feature. An Al-'Alam map poster keeps that relationship at the centre: the Tigris, the farmland it sustains and the neighbourhoods built along it, set down in quiet black lines for the families and friends who call the town home.
The river forms the strongest line on the map, curving past the town and separating it from the Tikrit side, with its banks drawn clearly on either shore.
Between the river and the houses lies a band of fields and groves, divided by small channels and paths that create a fine, rhythmic pattern.
Residential lanes run along and down toward the water, so the town appears as an elongated strip that echoes the direction of the river.
