Which probably is completely unrelated to Japan looking bigger and being placed in a more central position, do they have an actual rational for that?

I understand Asians would want their maps centered on Asia. I thought this would already be the case actually.

It makes sense but there's no reason we'd do the same

Also those proportions are ugly why not use something like this then

Australia's view.

(not in common use in Australia: I've lived there for a year and never saw this map. They use the standard map everyone uses, with Europe in north center. Even in China and Thailand they use the standard map and not the "Asia/Pacific in the middle" map.
>>
>>66901591
That's centered on the Pacific rim rather tho, I don't mind much in the sense Mexico looks big, is not disfigured and is in a central enough position it might make the Japanese think more about our country, but meh, it's pointless, just a different brand of culturocentrism.

You might have people on the Southern hemisphere doing upside down maps as well, it isn't going to change Westerners centering their maps and thoughts on the north Atlantic.

Japan and Asia in general always do this. It's more logical for them as States to show themselves closer to the middle.

>>66901087
>Americas not on the left

Delet this.

From what I know they use a map like that in certain South American countries.

Tbh, too much open space around the center.

You can't even draw KE007 incident's track properly on this map. Plus Russian Far East seems to be deformed

it was made as a political statement, not to be used for real.

You'd have to rewrite all history books, since words like 'western' or 'central' would lose all their intuitive meaning
