I need to map data of South America and the Caribbean, including small geographies such as St. Vincent and the Grenadines. However, in the World data set with the tmap library these are not included. Using the included spatial data base of the tmap library seems easier than finding, loading, parsing and cleaning a different shape file from some other sources. Is it possible to insert these countries or should I just fight through learning the details of GIS just to draw a simple thematic map of the Caribbean?

I have battled with reading shape files from OSM today and other mapping packages. Tmap is a great approach for us non-GIS professionals.

Thanks for any direction you can give.

    You might want to look at [gadm.org](https://gadm.org/) for shapefiles of specific countries (St. Vincent and the Grenadines is included). – Jaap May 21 '18 at 18:44
