Brilliant infographic from Kai Krause (perhaps the Kai Krause?) to combat rampant 'immappancy'

(Now corrected for map projection errors by marauding carto-nerds – thanks Manuela Schmidt)

I would perhaps twin it with these:

True Size Of AntarticaSee the image on its own

True Size Of AustraliaSee the image on its own

(Credits: USA – Bill Rankin, Radical Cartography, Antartica – NASA, Australia – unknown)
