A map of the world with the legend Green: Bigger than Vatican, Grey: No data. The entire world is green, except for Greenland and Western Sahara. New Zealand is shaded out so as to not appear at all.

This is only true when we look at a 2-dimensional map. If we saw it in 3 dimensions we could see that the Vatican reaches all the way to heaven
heaven
but maps have facts
Facts like New Zealand isn’t real
Who knows
I like the white-out over New Zealand
wdym? that smudge by Australia? that’s just where the garbage patch is rn
How there’s never enough data from Greenland? Are they afraid of surveys? Do they even exist?
Wow, Mercator projection really does skew the size. I figured for sure that Greenland would be bigger than the Vatican.
It might be, but we have no data.
Apperantly Vatican is bigger than Vatican.
No data for Denmark?
Mainland Denmark has data. Greenland, as with many of these surveys, does not.
it’s an old meme sir, it checks out
