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....
Ah yes, dark airless jungle in *checks map* Poland!?

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.Hmm, TIL that there is an Isthmus of Tehuantapec, and both Italy and Florida are islands, and New Zealand is fictional.

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

Urgh, where to even start with this one.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.

Shoutout to inexplicably independent Saxony
Where is Japan? Is it safe? Is it alright?At first glance I noticed that the depicted area is the old Soviet Union and not the Russian Federation.
At second glance I then noticed a slight oddity in the Pacific.

(as minor quibble Greece vanished but to compensate for it the Baltic seems to have silted up)
South America or Australia, pick one.No Taiwan or the Philippines.... not sure if it is worth wondering if South America exists...
More like a choice of all the biodiverse parts of Oceania or South America and I refuse to make the decision lolSouth America or Australia, pick one.
Whatever you do, don't overlay them. You'd get all the deadliness of Australian fauna mixed with the Amazon.South America or Australia, pick one.
If it was Australian, it would never have existed in the Domesticated form, only Guanaco would exist (and they'd have venom. )"That's not a llama. *This* is a llama."

I think the mix of curvy and angular lines is contributing a lot to how disgusting it looks. Most countries look like melted ice cream (probably going for wiggly lines as a substitute for detail), but then Central Europe looks like it got a bad case of colonization. Probably the weirdest thing on this whole map is how it looks like they drew Greece in blobs first, and then covered it up later with jagged trapezoids.Most of the borders are post-WWII, but at least they (and the coastlines) are correct.
