A couple maps of the world…

March 6th, 2007

But not your ordinary run of the mill atlases:

These computer-modified maps (or rather cartograms) were produced in an unique collaboration between two universities - project WorldMapper.
They show the world how it really is - with the countries either shrunk or blown out of proportion, depending on the chosen parameter. These maps are a great tool in the modern world trends analysis.
Visit the WorldMapper Project’s page for other thought-provoking comparisons.

It is an amazing collection of maps.  I never realized how fucking gigantic the toy industry is in China, and how it primarily feeds the United States…ginormous!  The nuclear weapon map on the WorldMapper site is pretty scary too…what the HELL is the US and Russia doing with so many fucking nuclear bombs???
Oh, and ‘the world according to…’ maps are pretty cool too…god damn spicks, commies and feds!
