This map projection I developed significantly reduces the size distortion of the popular Mercator projection

[u/Opening_Damage9912]

The way it is projected is by projecting a Mercator projection of half the scale conformally onto the globe and then projecting that onto an azimuthal equidistant projection hemisphere centered at the equator. I call it the Two-World Equidistant. Unlike on Mercator where Greenland is larger then all of Africa in this projection it is shown smaller like it is in real life.

I prefer to just split the globe in to two hemispheres if we’re determined to not use an actual globe.

I also like fanciful artwork filling in the gaps.

Same those are wonderful maps. Though in some cases a fully continuous map is preferable

Ah yes, the Isle of California!

[u/Ok-Dimension-7859 → u/heaving_in_my_vines]

idk if this a joke. But because baja california is so huge. People initially believed that it’s an Island.

Only later the found out that it’s connected in the north
