Скачать или смотреть Africa at True ScaleUnderstanding Map Projections and How the Mercator Projection Works

Most world maps are designed with specific goals in mind. One of the most commonly used designs is the Mercator projection, a map projection created to preserve direction and navigation accuracy. While it is excellent for travel and navigation, it does not preserve size.

This video explores how the Mercator projection affects the way Africa appears on many classroom and digital maps, and what happens when Africa is displayed at its true scale.

By visualizing Africa accurately, we gain a clearer understanding of global geography, cartography, and how design choices shape perception. This is an educational exploration of map projections, spatial representation, and why scale matters when learning about the world.

iSabiTV is committed to telling history, geography, and African stories with clarity, accuracy, and depth. This video is designed for students, educators, researchers, and curious minds who want to better understand how the world is mapped.

Watch closely and see Africa in proper perspective.
