You made this to specifically forget about New Zealand, right?

You clearly made that up because there's no Old Zealand on the map.

Technically there is. Zealand is the island where Copenhagen is located and that is definitely on the map.

It's always been funny to me that they named New Zealand after that tiny little island.

I wanted to point out that Zealand isn't that small but in comparison to New Zealand it really is, Zealand is about 7000km² while new Zealand is about 270.000km². So New Zealand is about 38 times bigger.

"Now new -> the NEW Zealand! With 38 times more Zealand!"

Yeah but technically New Zealand was named after the Dutch province of Zeeland, not the Danish island.

Hey buddy, we don’t take kindly to you just making up countries round these parts.

Clearly whatever country you are talking about fell off the edge of our rectangle a long time ago.

Also Maldives, Seychelles, Comoros, Tonga, Samoa, Kiribati, Tuvalu, Palau, Solomon Islands, Vanatu, Marshall Islands, Micronesia, Nuaru, and... I think that's it.

Edit: Silly me, I forgot one. Fiji, how could I forget Fiji?

There was not the case with Americas. Americas were forgotten (I know why, shut up).

A community for Cartographers with nothing left to lose.

Rules:

Don't be awful Lemmy Guidelines Still Apply.

No direct upload images This is hosted on Lemm.ee- to post images, you must use an image upload service like Imgur to post maps.

We are agents of chaos I've created this to be the alternative to the community I used to manage on the website that shalt not be named "mapporncirclejerk"

Live and let die Meme trends happen, so please don't message mods asking to take down maps that are repetitive to a bit.

Reposts Vs. Covers Not all reposts are evil- if someone posts something that has been done years ago, it serves to bring old memes to the new users. I call these meme covers. However it can be done in excess which makes it a repost and spam. Mods will determine if a post is a cover or a repost.

No impersonating mods I can't believe I had to make this rule.

No harassing mods on an appeal We can talk it out, and we will be acting in good faith when making decisions. If you disagree with a removal, you are free to message for clarification or to appeal by giving some added context.

Bans Bans will be set to a maximum of 365 days for humans, and a minimum of 365 years for bots. I believe people can change, so if you are banned for good reason, do know that it is not permanent, it is just a way to say "take time to grow and come back when you are ready".
