Google Maps, Country Facts and Route Planner
People have been in the age of prehistoric times trying to draw their environment. In the beginning, only the forests around the cave and other surrounding places included in these drawings, and as the traffic, the disciplines, and the size of the known areas known, parallel increased rapidly, the maps we have known.
Modern cartography linked to the name of Rumold Mercator; he made the first map collection. The collections of maps, of course, was still incomplete. There is no full map today since there are any advanced techniques available to explore, think of the unknown waters of the oceans…
In any case, we can say that we love the maps.
The maps are not only good for geography but also other global facts. Their store is almost inexhaustible. We can show population density, average temperature, precipitation, the per capita GDP, the number of births per capita… almost anything.
Color maps give us an aesthetic experience beyond carrying scientific knowledge.
Alastair Bonnett New views: The world’s Mapped Like Never Before works on the topic show some imaginative, scientific, and beautiful maps showing the planet Earth in different aspects.
From these scientific and art-worthy maps, here are a few cheer-seekers (we will add more maps regularly):
The UK is the 15th happiest country in the world, according to an international report.
The World Happiness Report 2016-2020, which surveyed 157 countries, aims “to survey the scientific underpinnings of measuring and understanding subjective well-being”.
It employs polling data on happiness and critical economic, health, and development markers and analysis from experts across fields, including economics, psychology, survey analysis, national statistics, health, and public policy.
NASA released the map below in November 2014. Its purpose is to show the distribution of planet-sunken celestial bodies using the Near-Earth Object Observation Program data. The map represents all perceived asteroid impacts in the category 1-20 meters in diameter, i.e., the smallest celestial body.
Yellow spots are the daylight, while blue indicates the nighttime impacts on the map. From there, it is clear that we can not hide from the asteroids because the impacts are spread evenly across the Earth’s surface.
So the French see European cuisine.
In the twentieth century, before the Scandinavian kitchen and the various fusion kitchens (fusion cuisine, if we combine the culinary arts of different cultures, mix and try to create new dishes), has come to fruition, one of the leading powers of gastronomy was undoubtedly France.
The French are also proud of this and strive to maintain the memory of this period.
Classical French cuisine varies according to the size of the country and the large number of its regions. Well, yes, the French baguette, the croissant.
But do not forget about the famous onion soup, eclair donut, Croque Monsieur sandwich, Coq au Vin (more simply red wine chicken), mustard rabbit on Ratatouille (This delicious single-piece is a tremendous full-length Pixar animation film also commemorates (Ratatouille), if you have not seen it, I recommend it!), fish soup and snails.
The French are a proud nation, aware of their varied gastronomy, not appreciating the culinary art of the surrounding countries. In many cases, they are characterized by a word, property, and diet (funny but very serious).
If we know the cuisine of a particular European people, this can, in many cases, put a smile on our faces.
Europe has always been a continent known in the Culinary world for its many wonderful cuisines. From the many exotic Italian dishes to the many aesthetic delicacies originating from Spain, Europe is a continent that excels in Culinary diversity.
Not all European countries are known for their Culinary genius, however, and to differentiate these “disappointments” from the Culinary aristocracy of Europe, many tourists have had to use Culinary maps that point out which countries have great foods and which ones are well… disappointments.
If you have ever visited Italy, you can agree that they have a high opinion about how great their meals are. And who can blame them? Their dishes are delicious! If you thought your Italian friends boast a little too much about the kind of food they have back home, you probably haven’t seen anything yet!
Doubt that? Well, let’s see if you’d still think so after what comes next!
Suppose you used to think Europe was a continent without diversity before. In that case, we hope we have been able to convince you otherwise with the many hilarious Culinary Maps in our archives.
If you still have your doubts, however, here’s another hilarious map showing you just how much diversity Europe offers.
Ever heard of The Arab Spring? If yes, you probably agree that it has to be one of the most powerful uprisings in recent years.
Having lasted for over 3 years, with almost all of Northern Africa and the Middle East enveloped in the protest, the Arab Spring was no little affair. It all started with a blaze… literally – a man burnt himself to death. It didn’t get any less intense from there.
With such a dramatic event starting up the Uprising and spreading over so many countries across the map, you can bet this was no half-hearted attempt at revolution that just died down without bringing about some change or the other. You could even say the Uprising was largely successful for many countries.
Love. One word we hear over and over and over again but remains somewhat hard to explain or define. After all, how could we define something so abstract? How can one explain something that expresses itself in so many different forms?
With love being such an abstract thing, as emotions usually are, you can bet that most people would have different ideas of what love is. And while there might be quite a several similarities, you can also bet there would be unique ideas and preferences. This funny map displays this rather perfectly.
Ah, the age-old European tradition of poking fun at the geography skills of our dear American friends. It’s a pastime as old as time, rooted in the sense of historical superiority and the belief that the Old World is the center of the universe. But let’s not forget that many Europeans can hardly point to …
Welcome to the Map of Africa According to the USA. As you can see, our knowledge of this vast and diverse continent is limited to a few stereotypes and misconceptions. From ‘Yay, democracy!’ in the north to ‘Fucking desert, dude!’ just below, this map is a humorous take on how the United States views Africa. …
