THE HOBO-DYER MAP Can a map challenge your assumptions about the world? Falkland The Hobo–Dyer map reorients the world, placing south at the Islands (U.K.) top and, like the Peters map that follows, uses an equal-area New a presentation, presenting accurate proportions of countries, Zealand n continents, and oceans in relation to one another, rather than i t emphasizing shape or compass bearings.

The Earth is round. So every flat, rectangular map involves New distortions. But which distortions? The Peters world map is an Zealand equal-area map, showing countries and continents in accurate proportion with one another and reducing the visual dominance of the Northern Hemisphere by shifting the equator to the middle of the map, both in sharp contrast to the more familiar Mercator projection. A n t a r c t i c a WORLD • POLITICAL NATIONAL BOUNDARIES While humanity’s impact is quite evident, and even striking, on many remotely sensed scenes, sometimes, as in the case with most political boundaries, it is invisible. State, provincial, and national boundaries can follow natural features, such as mountain ridges, rivers, or coastlines. Artificial constructs that possess no physi- cal reality— for example, lines of latitude and longitude— can also determine political borders. This world political map represents man’s imaginary lines as they slice and divide Earth. The National Geographic Society recognizes 192 independent states in the world as represented here. Of those nations, 185 are members of the United Nations.
