      It's intentional. They didn't even teach us that Egypt was located on the continent and hardly speak of Africa in regards to history. They mostly teach about the Roman Empire, the Holocaust, European wars that involve the US and that's about it. They hardly even mentioned Central and Southern America let alone Mexican or Canadian history and the history of the US is extremely diluted to the point that they ignore a lot of key moments that even impacted the greater issues that we are plagued with today. The US education system from K-12 is quite terrible if I'm being honest. They leave a lot of citizens ignorant. Like why did I have to learn about the Holocaust 4 years in a row? Isn't talking about Hitler what he ultimately wanted?

      The thing we learn the most about is about Africa and their history now. It depends on the country. In history class, we usually learn things about Europe, but in all other classes like language class and literature, we almost exclusively learn about black literature, black books, and black history and did I mention we have 1 class 45m every week exclusively talking about Africa and its relation to my western country.

      Okay what you said is not correct. You cannot fit ALL of those things in Africa lol. The map often used is called a Mercator projection, it became the go to map for sailers because it adjusts for the curvature of the earth and allowed them to set their compasses accordingly back in the day before GPS. It was so widely used, and people often didn’t know it’s real purpose, it became normalized

    My teacher was teaching about the world, and the map seems like the fake one so i told my teacher that this map was fake and the other changes blah blah blah, after i told them about this my whole classroom cracked up laughing thinking Im dumb, but then the next day i printed out the true world map and then showed it to my friends, when i told them this was the true one, they laughed like Im dumb but i told them to google it it then they quickly soon find out that i was telling the truth.

    I knew what the real size of Africa was in school because we had 3D globes. All modern globes show all countries as they really are. Instead of conspiracies, people need to look into why the closer a country is to the equator the more accurate it is on a 2D map whereas the farther away from the equator (and closer to the poles) a country is the bigger and more exaggerated it is on a 2D map.

      you are wrong, because none of those world maps explained the size descrepancy in a footnote. if are claiming that they had to shrink africa for it to fit, why not shrink the whole map to fit? africa was shrunk to serve a purpose of disrespecting africa. everywhere in the world, africans are disrespected and any african leader who tries to leberate africa is assasinated by western government. climate change is used as an excuse to prevent africa from developing. each western countries use more cement concrete iron and timber than the entire continent of africa yet they ask africa to develop 'sustainable' energy sources. african's know that co2 has nothing to do with climate change. africans also know that climates are not changing from one into another, co2 is only 0.04% of the atmosphere and is denser than o2 and n2 so it doesn't rise to the top of the atmosphere to block any electromagnetic wave. africans also know that each internal energy equation involves the total mass of the substance and in the case of the atmosphere, the mass of co2 is insignificant.

    It has nothing to do with being fair or unfair. The Mercator projection has more realistic sizes for all countries near the equator. All countries near the north and south poles are stretched due to the nature of the projection. It is not possible to perfectly project a 3D object (like a globe) into a 2D surface (a map).

    They haven’t told us in school cus in no way, shape or form; LITERALLY…did the white man want any of us knowing that the motherland, Africa makes every other place on earth PALE IN COMPARISON.
    Showing the true size would possibly empower people of color, unite people of color and possibly challenge the TRUE minority of the world. That minority being the white man. Let’s be honest. It til this day, scares the ever living shit of the white man.
    The USA, Canada and Europe combined doesn’t have the numbers of people that Africa does n naturally, the possibilities of power could be challenged.
    They’d consider it propaganda to show the size and treason to reveal the truth about majority/minority.
    With that said….truth ALWAYS REVEALS ITSELF. PERIOD. The time is NOW.

    • @TmanRock9
      @TmanRock9 Год назад

      Well no this is because a glove can not be accurately depicted in a 2D surface. That’s why schools have globes or Google maps which does accurately depict the continents. If the “white man” didn’t want you knowing then why did he make and distribute accurate globes?
      Showing the real size would not solve any of Africa’s problems, this wouldn’t make people unite or empower them to any meaningful extent because it really doesn’t matter. Africans don’t have a hard time because some map projections show that their continent is smaller than it really is.
      The population of white people in all three of those places is roughly 1,000,000,000. This is more than enough to challenge africa and their technological and military superiority makes the difference in population here rather meaningless.

    There is no "real" map. There are several different types of projections.

It happens because it is impossible to project a sphere onto the plane surface without distortion
