Map's Monday's Classwork

On the Mercator map everything is placed wrong. On Peter's map he fixed it. He fixed all the proportions to where now everything should be scientifically correct. For example, Greenland should be 14 times smaller than Africa on the real map that we used growing up, but instead it's only 2 times smaller, fooling everyone that there's a lot more extra land in Greenland. Alaska should only be slightly bigger then Texas while it looks like it can cover half the United States. South America should be longer and skinnier and on the real map, it's smaller and shorter. This new map still has me on edge and I'm gonna need time to adjust to it.
