Also known as Ryleth.

The Quest for Iranon.

this legendary mythical story has American high schoolers unable to find Mexico on the map .

Just posting for "the Shire".

I find it surprising that one of the few countries that has the right name is Luxembourg.

I take this is an exam paper or whatever on which schoolchildren identify countries ? The Shire is of course wrongly placed or something as if ı were to find a reference it would turn out to be some rural England where Tolkien could drive to without crashing on the way , reportedly a terrible driver . Yet ... oh wait , the dotted thing is where Europe is seperated from Asia .

Does anyone else notice

Orange you glad our superior temperature system is still in use?

We blue the competition away.

Nope, that’s all. Only two color jokes here. Sorry to have disappointed you.

They forgot to mention it has more or less the population of Romania

Also, the last comparison seems rather ridiculous, as does the "Europe" (what is it? It's not the Eu, and it isn't the continent either; seems to be roughly 2/5ths of the continent...)

Honestly, the real take-away for me is how big South-East Asia is.

What an odd picture: Yugoslavia and Czechoslovakia are both broken up (meaning this map was made after 1993) but the Soviet flag is on there... and communist Romania... twice.

It seems whoever made this just couldn't bother to do more than copy-paste already made rows of flags. It is why you also see the flag of countries not there on the maps, eg Sweden and Norway

It also has that ugly font that was in every American/world history textbook printed in the 1990’s. Ew! Ew! Get it away!

Take me away from these fugly maps. Calgon, take me away!

I told you the Chunnel was a bad idea!

 

[Kyriakos]

I was looking for a graph node map of Europe, using number of neighbor states, but a quick google provided no result (I am sure there are maps, just didn't find it by looking for Europe map + graph node) so this will have to do (it is major transport network nodes)

I am not sure why there is an intersection in Jutland, but no node. Should be Aarhus anyway.

It isn't altered, but I found it interesting.

*Australia map*

I still have that somewhere as a postcard that I got c.1999
