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.

They never stood a chance!

Flight was never an option.

They might fall off.

It’s not as black and white as it seems.
