The Map You Grew Up With Is A Lie. This Is What The World Really Looks Like
The world is not quite what it seems. Most of the maps you see day-to-day are based on Mercator projection. Designed almost 450 years ago, even Google Maps used a variant of this projectionHowever, as you can see below, it’s surprisingly bad at accurately reflecting the true size of many countries.
Neil Kaye, a climate data scientist at the Met Office in the UK, has designed a map visualization that alternates between the Mercator projection and true projections of a country's area relative to other countries. The GIF elegantly shows how the Mercator projection distorts the true size of many countries, especially those further away from the equator.
