“A map says to you. Read me carefully, follow me closely, doubt me not... I am the earth in the palm of your hand.” - Beryl Markham (Aviator)
I love finding random maps on the internet. They are so fascinating and tell us little details we never knew before. For instance, did you know there’s a map that shows which countries were not invited to Queen Elizabeth II's funeral? There’s even one that reveals the countries where it has never snowed before!
We have shared many interesting maps below. I wasn’t really fond of geography when I was at school, but these cool and informative maps make me see our planet from a different perspective.
