POLITICAL MAP OF THE WORLD

Political bản đồ of the WorldShown aboveThe maps above is a political maps of the world centered on Europe and Africa. It shows the location of most of the world"s countries and includes their names where space allows. Representing a round earth on a flat map requires some distortion of the geographic features no matter how the maps is done. We have used a Mercator projection for this maps because it is the projection most commonly used in schools. On this map, geographic boundaries that trend north-south appear as vertical lines, geographic boundaries that trend east-west appear as horizontal lines. This type of projection causes a minimum of country-shape distortion near the equator, a small amount of distortion at mid-latitudes, but extreme distortion near the poles. For that reason, the bản đồ does not extend to the north & south poles.
