The map depicts both North and South Korea. The only thing ‘off’ is that both parts are colored as Korea. But that’s only strange until you remember that both parts claim to be the sole governor of the whole peninsula. Just like both the GDR and FRG claimed to be governors of all of Germany.

Yeah I was like, "it's a map of the world with the Korean peninsula highlighted, what's the problem?'

NGL, I thought they were talking about Antarctica, but that makes more sense

Is this a real Map? I ask because it has New Zealand on it.

[-] MadMadBunny@lemmy.ca 17 points 1 year ago

Yeah… must be fake

[-] Bratosch@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

What, so New Zealand isn't real now?

[-] slazer2au@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

It never was.

That map projection is finely aged rubbish with an exquisitely greasy texture.

[-] NichEherVielleicht@feddit.org 20 points 1 year ago

Wow this is so much worse. Its disorienting.

[-] Dozzi92@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

So many of the angles seem wrong. Africa. The Americas. Is it a Mercator map defect type thing going on, or just shitty North Korean map.

Why does NA look like a gourd

I like how they made Cuba twice the size of Florida.

[-] ms_lane@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

RIP Timor.

this isn't actually such a bad map. if you ever tried to custom cut a world map or satellite image without cutting thru too much land and then stretch it to rectangular shape, you know the struggle

[-] Una@europe.pub 5 points 1 year ago

I ate it, sorry :3

[-] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

The only map in the whole country showing there is stuff outside of NK

[-] BuboScandiacus@mander.xyz 2 points 1 year ago
