Another map without New Zealand!
But does it have Old Zealand?
Technically, yes. Province in Netherlands, actual name Zeeland.
TIL
Looks like the sequel became a much bigger hit.
Not according to some mapmakers apparently. 😢
New Zealand certainly has the nicer mountains.

New Zealand doesn't exist. Birds and giraffes either.
Isn't this one just cropped?
They often are
I need to know the source of this because this has to be fake or trolls because all of those in the western hemisphere or in the ocean are just silly and can't be for real
those in the western hemisphere or in the ocean are just silly
Correct
and can't be for real
Likely incorrect. You'd be shocked at how profoundly stupid and/or misinformed some people are in a country that routinely robs its public education system to pay churches and private corporations..
Do you honestly think those data points in the Atlantic are genuine and not trolling?
Yes
if it was a fox news poll i'd pick 1600 pennsylvania avenue in DC specifically.
This is someone just hitting an iPad leaving a grocery store to move on with their life
Thought process:
"Iran? Like a marathon? That could be anywhere"
🎵 And Iran, Iran so far away-ay-ay 🎵
marathon is in greece. i'm pretty sweaty. shower's over there. must be in america
Looks like they got Iraan, TX correct
Now that‘s an explanation! They never heard of Iran as a country and thought it was a random-ass city. And since they didn’t know where it was, they guessed the center of the US!
Iraan, TX is a real place, though it's pronounced "Ira-Ann."
Iraan is the second largest town in the second largest county in the second largest state in the United States, which is the second largest country in North America.

This has to be a joke right? Some dots are in the ocean
Buster: ovbiously, the blue part here is land.
I'd love to think that, but this is America, where basic geography might as well be Egyptian hieroglyphics to most people.
10th grade history we didn't do history, we did maps and had to memorize all the countries. if we sang the song (without mumbling) we got bonus points.

Are these schoolchildren? Adults? People in retirement homes? All ages?
Surety these are trolls, especially the ones putting it in the ocean…
That one person who has it in for Arizona.
Honestly, Iran sounds more pleasant.
hey, i know a couple really nice greek restaurants (and by extension, families) in phoenix. they just made some really big mistakes by moving to phoenix.
No, Jeremy. This is the chart that Ann sneezed on with a mouthful of cheerios.
The actual distribution plot is still in the printer. Go get it.
I think Iran is its own planet somewhere in andromeda galaxy.
How many data points you think that is something like 5,177? HAY chatGPT HOW MANY NUKES DOSE AMERICA HAVE?
...
What a wonderful coincidence.
The points chosen so far off from Iran just prove the point in a perverse way. The people are stupid, uneducated, or just willfully being assholes by choosing the wrong places. Just go ahead and lump them together. One set is damaging because of ignorance, the rest due to malice. Pretty much sums up trump and his followers.
Most of them were fairly close.
Many of them were fairly close, but with 23% in the borders I wouldn't judge that most were, if I look where I think half the dots are it's starting to get quite far into Europe, Africa, India or China. Which imo should all be fairly easy to rule out, but shrug
That there is (n+1) people who in identifying a desert, Farsi speaking, country chose the ORKNEY ISLANDS...smh
Quite a few up in Greenland. Maybe this explains Trump's confusion about that.
Americans are extremely dumb so this does not surprise me at all.
hey! we may be americans, and we may be extreme, but, uh, what was the third thing you said?
