I did study geography in college, and have been a geo geek since. And the one thing one of my instructors insisted we learn was how distorted the Mercator projection is. It's purpose originally for navigation route plotting. But one thing I learned is that of all the equal area map projections that I know of, the one that distorts the LEAST is the Goode's broken homolosine. There c are some equal area maps that distort the Shapes of the continents so badly they're neatly unrecognizable.

What’s fascinating to me is to see how close some parts of the world are to one another when you take into account the spherical shape of the earth.

It's so small when compared to a world map, but even the smallest of areas is really massive.

Indeed. It all started when they ran out of trees to use as fuel and building material. On a side note, after the New World was 'discovered' the first thing they wrecked for profit was (in their minds) the endless, inexhaustible forest around settlements and the frontier, shipping countless logs back to Europe. Many accounts claim how awestruck the sight of all the trees were from the sea, compared to their depleted, long gone woodlands back home.

I am actually shocked at the amount of people that did not get the point of the video. I am very sorry RealLifeLore that they are being as rude as they are. The point of the video was to show the distortion that this 2 dimensional map of a 3 dimensional object has, and its effects on perceived size of countries/continents vs their actual size. Russia is made to look much smaller because he takes it from the north, where the distortion in size is at its worst, to the equator, where there is much less distortion. You can't, however, take the size he makes it and place it anywhere else and say "The Russia he made is smaller than the Russia on the map!" and expect to be taken seriously. If you move it anywhere else, you have to account for the distortion. That is basically what he does to everything, and it is correct. What he says in completely correct, and accurate.

If you're interested, the reason the earth cannot be "faithfully" portrayed on a plane is due to its Gaussian curvature. A 3-dimensional object can most certainly be portrayed with an isometric mapping depending on the object in question. One of the easiest examples which shows this is the cylinder, which has the obvious mapping of cutting through it vertically and unfurling it into a plane. That would properly preserve all notions of distance and angles. This will hold true to all objects of which has Gaussian curvature of 0. That is to say, all those whose metrics are similar can be faithfully mapped to one another. For a good visual example of this, Numberphile has a video on hyperbolic geometry "Too Many Triangles" which is a very accurate depiction of exactly why this curvature matters for projection, since all of this is a question of how angles are measured on the surface in question.

The Mercator projection is explained by making a glass earth, painting on the land then putting a lightbulb in the centre.

We were give a printed map with vertical slices in the map missing that, when cut out and put together, would make the globe with a round shape. The teacher explained that this was the reason the earth could never actually be shown on a flat map without pieces cut out. I think I was in grade 3 and I am from Africa. I understood this concept completely. Your American school systems have a lot to answer for.

Land had little to do with it. At least, not exactly. As is often said ad nauseam, Europe is a horizontal country. That means, for at least much of the mainland, much of it is similar climate. That is REALLY fucking good if you are looking to advance as a civilization. In contrast, Africa is a climate disaster, with everything from deserts to rain forest. That makes advancement really, really hard. Obviously, other factors also played in, but yeah. It is not about land SIZE if your big area of land is shit for human advancement...except for exploitation of resources and human labor (ie european colonial resource exploitation and slavery). Funny, how nowadays, China is the one doing it. It seems no matter what changes in the world, Africa will always be getting fucked in the ass.
