OTL Map Thread Mk IV., 2014-

About one and a half years ago, I had found a somewhat cheesy map of Europe:

And now for maybe the cheesiest map ever:

Sardinia: we have some non-disgusting cheeses too, you know.

Poland has some odd-looking cheeses. And are those doughnut-shaped cheeses in the Czech republic?

Can anyone help me identify the author/original site of this map? I've seen others that are similar to it on AH.com but I haven't seen a direct attribution and before I mod it I want to at least try due diligence!

I'm not sure but id say it was made by Joaquín de Salas Vara de Rey for Hisatlas. He has made a very nice collection of maps but sadly hidden behind a paywall

Thank you--that does look probable! Probably reposted by someone with full access, then, given the higher resolution. Good to know for future work!

One of my main sources for this was this map of SA’s racial groups (and from there I extrapolated where the individual ethnic groups were within these larger areas)

Consider also this language map of Limpopo Province.

Found on reddit, an intriguing variation of making a world map:

You thought I was done making ethnic maps? Think again!

Found a cool pre-WWII map of Nazi Germany, Hungary and Slovakia...
Even my hometown is written there. 😁

Excellent map, what is the base, is it just an enlarged M-Bam or something?
Do you have any more German maps?

My base was from a German atlas from the early 1900s. I have a similar map for Baden, but haven’t done anything with it

Population Growth 1950 - 2020 by UN data

I continue

In the 20 years since the publication of "World Population Prospects: The 2000 Revision", you can take the results and determine the adequacy of the demographic models used by the UN in its forecasts. In the global plan, the UN almost guessed - although the population for 2020 is slightly larger than the "medium" option, it is closer to it than to the "high" one. At the regional level, disagreement begins - few countries are in the middle range. This is due to several aspects:
1) The UN did not guess the rate of falling fertility in Asian countries such as Iran and Africa
2) The “medium” varinat did not take into account fertility recovery in Eastern Europe
3) In many countries there are problems with population statistics (Ukraine, I'm talking about you) and migration
4) Obviously, the UN did not incorporate military conflicts into its model, such as the Syrian Civil War
5) I don’t understand in what dream of reason they found 2 million people in Bhutan at the turn of the millennium
