    1. No better than China. The Chinese characters for “China” literally translate to “center country”. 

    2. Ignoring the obvious bit about korea, I actually like this map more than the mercator projection. Everything seems to be a lot more proportionate. 

    3. It’s kinda odd putting Greenland separate from the Americas. Though right now, I imagine they prefer it that way.

      I don’t get it. Other than North Korea apparently including South Korea, what’s the difference. Sure, Asia is centred in the middle, that’s fairly common.
      I guess Americans and Europeans that haven’t traveled to Asia or Australasia are not used to seeing the globe from this perspective.

      Quite like it!

      Don’t think Trump and his pals would approve though.

      Especially as Greenland looks so far out of reach.
