Maybe I'm not understanding. Isn't Australia an island, so wouldn't it show as some kind of "lake" like new Zealand is?
I was confused as well and I found this coloured version and this version with sea connections (green for Panama and Suez canal) that helped me to understand!
Thank you.
Still kinda a weird how they have it laid out. Granted I'm no cartographer, I don't know the struggles of projecting a sphere on a plane.
The Continental divides split the continents in half as there's no water that goes fully over them. That's awesome!
oh yes now i get it
Every continent is an island
Europe and Asia claim otherwise.
That's because they're only fake continents who don't realize they're just parts of Afro-eurasia.
Hell, Europe is just a peninsula with delusions of grandeur.
Here’s a better projection. I don’- know what went wrong with OP’s…
