The map has been generated by reversing land and water and elevations. The ocean trenches become mountain chains. The verdant/desert attributions are presumably extrapolated from current terrestrial patterns.
So... where would I want to live in this reversed world? That Mediterranean Peninsula would probably get hammered by wicked tropical weather. I think maybe near the shores of Lake Madagascar, with the mountains on one side and the African Sea on the other.

I like those Michigan Islands...
ReplyDeleteso the deepest place is the former mount everest?
ReplyDeleteI-)
I'd like to try one of the African or Eurasian islands.
ReplyDeleteHowever I wouldn't want to try scaling Mount Mariana.
Something I read some time ago that's stuck with me is that if you cut Everest off at its base and dropped it into the Mariana Trench its peak would be a mile underwater.
