From: Neehai Zapata This is a flawed test. It is a completely Eurocentric map that disproportionately represents the countries in the Northern Hemisphere in a continuing effort to oppress the people of Africa and Asia.
Actually I have it on good authority that the distorted map problem is in fact the result of a crafty Greenlanders bribing cartographers... |
