Return of Horrible Educational Maps

Poland's eastern border is its pre-WWII border, yet its western border is from after WWII.
Also the West Bank appears on the map; so I presume Israel already exists.
Anything else I missed outside of badly drawn borders?
The Poland borders would make an interesting Alt History Challenge. *Maybe* Poland ends up badly losing the Polish-Soviet War, ends up Communist, is *allied* with the USSR against a Nazi germany. Not sure how you keep anyone's USSR from eating the Baltics (maybe *they* had other issues with the Nazi and were willing members of the alliance???)

Hmm, TIL that there is an Isthmus of Tehuantapec, and both Italy and Florida are islands, and New Zealand is fictional. Same with Sri Lanka. Huh....
The strange thing is that they've been able to do the islands of Madagascar, Sumatjava and Borneo, and the peninsulas of Malaya and Kamchatka, so it's not really clear what they've got against Italy, Korea, Florida and Nova Scotia.

At least, I think those Atlantic islands off the NE American coast south of Newfoundland are meant to be Nova Scotia...

Ah yes, dark airless jungle in *checks map* Poland!?
I'm not sure how "educational" that map was meant to be ;) (Earthquake zone in Northern Scandinavia, anyone?)

I did like that the listed hazards of that uncharted desert island off the coast of New Zealand include "underarm bowlers".

Most of the borders are post-WWII, but at least they (and the coastlines) are correct. There are much worse WWII maps. It took me a while to find where I had stashed it in my PC, but I finally dug it out.

Warning: eye-gougingly bad. Enlarge Thumbnail at your own risk.
