The Distorted World Map You Believe In | How Maps Mislead Us | Mercator Projection: The Bias We Ignore | Why Africa Looks So Small on Your Map | The Hidden Power of Map Projections | Map Illusions: Truth Behind the Global North's Size


In this eye-opening video, we dive deep into the Mercator Projection — the most commonly used world map, and also one of the most distorted representations of Earth. While it accurately preserves shape and direction for navigation, it grossly exaggerates the size of countries in the Global North (like Europe and North America) while minimizing the Global South (like Africa, India, and South America).

You'll learn why Greenland appears larger than Africa, even though it's 14 times smaller, and how these distortions are not just geographic but political and psychological. This video is essential for UPSC aspirants, geography lovers, and anyone interested in how visual perception shapes global power narratives.

We also touch upon alternative projections like the Gall-Peters projection and how cartography has been used historically to reinforce colonial mindsets.
