This is several years old, but is worth sharing. Found at the very interesting Strange Maps blog, which offers this additional observation:
What’s also quite bizarre is the fact that a relatively sparsely populated country such as Argentina (about 38 million inhabitants) is not that much smaller than India, the world’s second-most populous nation, which currently has a population of about 1,1 billion people.
Odd that it refers to "Other named countries". Is this making the all-too frequent mistake of considering Africa as something other than a Continent?
ReplyDelete@ Dan - Also "Western Europe" isn't a "country," nor "the British Isles." I suspect it's just linguistic imprecision rather than lack of knowledge on the creator's part.
