it's a shame, 2d images never will be able to depict it accurately in a way that is easily viewed and understood. you could make a very complex map of multiple extremely narrow vesica piscis but it would look incomprehensible
This actually has been fixed by a Japanese cartographer named Narukawa. Search AuthaGraph World Map and you will find the most acurate flat map. The reason why it isn't in more use is because simply Europe isn't in the middle. And America isn't projected to be as big so they would rather be inacurate but make a subtle perception that they're more important than other countries
ThirteenOnline where can one find this version of the map because attempting to represent a spheroid on a flat surface is always wrong and distorted and theres nothing you can do about it if on this new map if the USA isnt like the 4th or 5th largest not counting Alaska then its wrong from a land area perspective
Google authagraph world map. From what I understand you're right there will always be distortion so most of the distortion are in the oceans not land. Also the paper is wider than normal. And he uses an origami technique to start from a globe and go to a flat map instead of flat map to globe. IT's harder to explain but makes sense when you see the map. The orientation is different but it is acurate
Canada's landmass is actually smaller than the US, and 4th largest in the world behind Russia, China, and the US. This is because much of Canada's claimed surface area is water.
"Elections take two days in Russia". Maybe you can in Russian embassies abroad or in special circumstances you can vote earlier. But elections themselves are held on the same day. Considering time zones and excluding embassies, elections take 22 hours.
Just to be clear to people who think the US is the only country on Earth, Tasmania is not SOUTH OF AUSTRALIA, it is an Australia STATE, IT IS AUSTRALIA!!!!!!
I don't know if this video is transformative enough. It just feels like I'm watching the original video and yall are saying "wow" or "huh" from time to time. Spice it up with some post reaction discussion or make it into a game or something. ^_^
canada is bigger then usa and on maps it looks EVEN bigger, not other way around ^^ things away from aquator looks bigger :) so jaeh canada looks way bigger then usa on cards but its really just a little bit bigger
and I can´t hear the word Africa because I think about the war in kongo kinshasa which noone cares about so since I am a lion my body goes into an automatic attack mode and need to stop myself a bit and think things through, but I always do so it is ok :)
Ugh i hate it when people say western Europe , i'm from Poland and that's central Europe and people class us as eastern Europe and everyone makes us irreverent by not talking about us -_-
This is so stupid for people that don't get this. You can't accurately make a two-dimensional image out of a three-dimensional sphere. Some of the best map makers in the world have tried and all have failed. It is literally scientifically impossible oh, something has to be sacrificed.
Only the Western portion of Russia is Europe, everything east of the Ural Mountains (Siberia) is Asia. But yeah they usually only compare to Western Europe.
Well the top 10 largest countries in the world are: 1) Russia 2) Canada 3) USA 4) China 5) Brazil 6) Australia 7) India 8) Argentina 9) Kazakhstan 10) Algeria
whoever made this video...why he doesn't compared using area of particular country, continent or state.i think he is fooling people...this is nonsence...there are many algorithms you can use to map 2d to 3d images like google maps do.
with each comment like this, you help the engagement of the video and help them grow larger. Why don't you ask google your stupid question and spare us your ignorance?
+ nupe865 No , U shadap It is as scientifical fact that Earth is Fat in more ways than one, everyone knows this . For example Neil deGrasse Tyson publicly stated that the Earth have a permanent bulge . The aerospace industry even took advantage of this when designating orbits for satellites (check Scott Manley video on this titled "Fat Earth Theory' - How Earth's Shape Changes Spacecraft Orbits . You "Anorexic Earth" believers need to step out of your cave and come to the 21st century. .
The mercator projection is also very very very useful when it comes to navigating the globe
I don't think that that vid really clearly explains the distortion caused by the Mercator depiction
all flat maps suffer from the fact that it is near impossible to make a sphereoid flat each map has its uses for different things
it's a shame, 2d images never will be able to depict it accurately in a way that is easily viewed and understood. you could make a very complex map of multiple extremely narrow vesica piscis but it would look incomprehensible

But inland water counts, doesn't it?
Sure, but I was more referring to coastal waters. Thats where Canada has a huge advantage due to the massive archipelagos to the north.
Where's Jane from? when she says 'Brasil' at 3:53 it sounds like perfect spanish
"Elections take two days in Russia". Maybe you can in Russian embassies abroad or in special circumstances you can vote earlier. But elections themselves are held on the same day. Considering time zones and excluding embassies, elections take 22 hours.
She said “weeks”
Yeah, apparently that map projection preserves shape at the expense of scale. Other projections will distort shapes to preserve scale.
You guys should react to How ocean is deeper than you think.
they did
too lazy to look it up?
my dongle is small but i make up for it with my enthusiasm.
ChrisTara No
yes
When i was young every classroom had a globe.
Thats because the mercator is the best for navigation not for size as the further you go from the equator the bigger countries get
4:57 “an election takes 2 weeks in Russia” elections 😂😂
So you didn't do geography in high school?
they're americans, of course they didn't
They are Canadian
The proportion thing is nothing pupils usually are taught...
I don't remember ever being taught about the map disproportion from elementary to senior high school.
Maybe the geography class in college?
I'm kinda new here so maybe I missed out, but how did my man JV get left out of the channel name? Lol.
My mind has been well and truly scrambled!
This girl looks so much like Peggy off of mad men I’m amazed
Just to be clear to people who think the US is the only country on Earth, Tasmania is not SOUTH OF AUSTRALIA, it is an Australia STATE, IT IS AUSTRALIA!!!!!!
It's amazing how tiny the UK is yet they used to be the most powerful! small chilis have a lot of spice lol
The UK isn't that small In "My Own Opinion", If you want me to explain why then that's fine.
What they lacked in manpower for they made up for in ships.
I feel like most people should have known this already.
Love stuff like this :)~
You guys should watch some vsauce if you really want to learn :) he explains the sizes of countries better too.
the way the brotha put on his chapstick was suspect
I don't know if this video is transformative enough. It just feels like I'm watching the original video and yall are saying "wow" or "huh" from time to time. Spice it up with some post reaction discussion or make it into a game or something. ^_^
Are you in America that you are not studying this in grade 6?(sorry for my mistakes I just lean English)
2:39 I love the "the" in Philippines. :D
He's right though. Just like people say "the United States" or "the United Kingdom".
Australia is mainly desert.
You should react to "Why all maps are wrong?"
Map Men Map men Map Map Map Men Men
6:04 t h a t ' s b a n a n a s
3:04 - how can they mention almost every other european country including all of our neighbours but not mention slovenia in between them
Because then it'd be bigger than the US. The world map distorts its size, Slovenia is actually almost as big as Russia.
@@warpedcomedy !?
@@slavicandroid1999 Nobody gets my jokes it seems
@@warpedcomedy eh, happens to the best of us
i love this kind of reactions....im learning a lot because of you
Kell.M how are you learning from them?? Fucking dumbass
Fucking dumbass they’re just stealing a video
canada is bigger then usa and on maps it looks EVEN bigger, not other way around ^^ things away from aquator looks bigger :) so jaeh canada looks way bigger then usa on cards but its really just a little bit bigger
Brazil is also more violent than all hahaha. but he is very receptive and playful. I love Brazil.
webster vieira What about Venezuela?
Its not, Guatemala, Honduras and Venezuela are much more violent countries than Brazil
Australia is almost the same size as America and our population is 24 million. America's population is 325 million. Trippy huh.
@Kristopher Chavez Those places deserve huge development if well established infrastructure was made between states.
Sweden is small, but we have invented like 10% of all that makes our normal world today :D
and I can´t hear the word Africa because I think about the war in kongo kinshasa which noone cares about so since I am a lion my body goes into an automatic attack mode and need to stop myself a bit and think things through, but I always do so it is ok :)
I learned this in elementary school lol
What r u two doing in ur high school life? I think it is a normal sense
Spent 6 minutes thinking this was porn
Ugh i hate it when people say western Europe , i'm from Poland and that's central Europe and people class us as eastern Europe and everyone makes us irreverent by not talking about us -_-
On Africa is population 2,4 billion = India 1,3 billion and China 1,3 billion population
3:16 this part reminds me the song nations of the world by Yakko Warner...
Brazilian here 🇧🇷😙🇧🇷
Brazil is Larger then Australia.
Woman... the last thing you needed here was MORE lipstick... holy crap
At least she's not wearing that racist, Malcom X hat in this video

Get a Peter's projection map its better than the Mercator map
So every time he says " larger than Europe" he doesn't include Russia. It may be at the top of Asia but it's european
Only the Western portion of Russia is Europe, everything east of the Ural Mountains (Siberia) is Asia. But yeah they usually only compare to Western Europe.
It only became European after than Slavs invaded it. Before that it was Asian since 1000BCs
Rói Letícia né??
Africa has slitly smaller population than India and China
More lipstick MORE
This was sort of confusing. Watch Cartographers for Social Equality - The West Wing.
You lost me on the chapstick.
real life lore credits
The size of denmark inside the US was wrong. Biggest part of denmark was missing => greenland.
I don't get the point of reaction videos, but I liked the video you reacted to
oh wow...India is bigger than the UK.....gasp
Did he say UGANDA
Well the top 10 largest countries in the world are:
1) Russia
2) Canada
3) USA
4) China
5) Brazil
6) Australia
7) India
8) Argentina
9) Kazakhstan
10) Algeria
Size doesnt matter
just show the Peters Projection
There was an episode of "The West Wing" that dealt with that.
You guys should react how to to remove a brain tumor from a women.
Of course it is were on a giant turtles back.
The usa is way Bigger 🇺🇸
BRASIL \o/ \o/ \o/ \o/ \o/
gays
Can you two react to elder scrolls online summerset official cinematic trailer
1 billion people in Africa
OUT LIVES ARE A LIE! XD
React to the first 32 minutes of zeitgeist
You need more lipstick.
How did it not occur to you? Brainwashing through the education system
Wow
5:49 Antarctica is the Ice Ring (Azimuthal Equidistant)

this reaction adds nothing

Google maps uses the incorrect Mercator projection. However, if you measure distances google gets it right.
Stop stealing videos from my favorite youtuber
I don’t get the point of reaction channels
They provide a public platform for ordinary people, usually Americans, to show the rest of the world exactly how much they don't know.
they steal videos

5:24 Earth is not a Globe. Research Flat Earth
Research flat Earth is an oxymoron
Earth isn’t flat,been proven wrong thousands of years ago,stop believing in something that even thousands of years ago was straight up proven wrong
I don't believe. I know. Globe Earth was never proven!
Zero11s what would you consider proof
take a picture to proof it
It's already been proven that we are not living in a sphere!
Correct. It is an oblate spheroid/ellipsoid, as are most rotating spherical bodies of non-solid materials.
If we were to call Earth a sphere, just for simplicities sake, it still would be a true statement as we do not live inside it.
Of course we do not live inside it , we live *on* it.
Also the Earth is Fat.
remliqa shut up.
