A map showing the misplacement of Malaysia. East Timor appears to be missing.

Brunei can into Island!

Cross polar map depictions can be tricky but even that doesn't excuse what happened on that map:

Japan? Sri Lanka?

Given that the upper image depicts Alexandria-Syene this is about the circumference of the Earth and how Eratosthenes calculated it. Hence it is very educational.
Admittedly given the font it was aimed at a younger audience, but still that globe...

I would guess Eratosthenes himself had more geographical knowledge than these map-makers, at least concerning the areas he knew existed.

Why is there a strange gap in Cuba?

North Korea is only Korea. Except for Cheju Island.

China has grown larger(TM).

Laos has grown much larger.

I like how Vietnam is apparently part of Laos and independent at the same time.

There are no words to describe how wrong this map is.

The name of the makers reminds me of the History Channel. About midway through when it was actually about history and to when the channel name was changed to H or something. Anyways, I feel someone should try a map with this Cuba. It would add to the fun to be had with colonies and large islands. It seems the island is filled with one massive lake, but I presume that unless the coasts are high that waves will spill brackish water into it.

How has China grown larger? I see nothing other than what's currently under PRC control plus Taiwan.

Look at Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan.

Look at Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan.

Hmm, almost looks like a shadow...

The maker probably think no one would recognize Laos if they just print Laos' shape.

>Ecuador in the US
Well, they do use our currency…
>Chad is Afghanistan
The Virgin Central Asia vs. the Chad Sahara.
>Chilean mountain
So they just have one guy sitting on top of one of the Andes mountains like a guru? And if a hiker ever finds him, he gets the best deal imaginable for whatever the company is selling?
>Madagascar is Sri Lanka
“So, uh… Sri Lanka.” “Yeah?” That’s an island, right?” “Yep, it has a little point at the top.” “Ah, okay, I see it now. Thanks.” “Hey, that’s why I’m here.”
>”Hashakstan” doesn’t exist in the first place
Mhmm.

I was going to keep it up, but I just realized that not only did they duplicate the Americas (which I figured was just to fit more names in so they didn’t overlap), they seem to have HAND DRAWN the second one for some reason.

And Arunachal Pradesh.

Welcome to Niger. There was too much human suffering here so as you can see we sunk it into the ocean
