Another map without New Zealand!

But does it have Old Zealand?

Technically, yes. Province in Netherlands, actual name Zeeland.

Looks like the sequel became a much bigger hit.

Not according to some mapmakers apparently. 😢

TIL

Tbh, as a central european i am very much concerned about the amount of americans putting iran in central europe lol

Looks like they got Iraan, TX correct

That one person who has it in for Arizona.

I wonder if this is because they often use an America centered map

Or because people don't take it seriously, such as the ones who selected the ocean.

Nah, they just thought the white was the landmass

New Zealand certainly has the nicer mountains.

No, Jeremy. This is the chart that Ann sneezed on with a mouthful of cheerios.

The actual distribution plot is still in the printer. Go get it.

Thought process:

"Iran? Like a marathon? That could be anywhere"

Honestly, Iran sounds more pleasant.

Now that‘s an explanation! They never heard of Iran as a country and thought it was a random-ass city. And since they didn’t know where it was, they guessed the center of the US!

Isn't this one just cropped?

Are these schoolchildren? Adults? People in retirement homes? All ages?

🎵 And Iran, Iran so far away-ay-ay 🎵

Iraan, TX is a real place, though it's pronounced "Ira-Ann."

Iraan is the second largest town in the second largest county in the second largest state in the United States, which is the second largest country in North America.

"We're Number 2!"

As a Scandinavian: Phew.

Quite a few up in Greenland. Maybe this explains Trump's confusion about that.

I think Iran is its own planet somewhere in andromeda galaxy.

Better invade all these places to be safe

Guess where we dropping booyyyss 🤠

Yeeeehhhaaawww!

Surety these are trolls, especially the ones putting it in the ocean…

Most of them were fairly close.

They often are

Many of them were fairly close, but with 23% in the borders I wouldn't judge that most were, if I look where I think half the dots are it's starting to get quite far into Europe, Africa, India or China. Which imo should all be fairly easy to rule out, but shrug

All of those dots on Greenland explains what 's going on right now

How many data points you think that is something like 5,177? HAY chatGPT HOW MANY NUKES DOSE AMERICA HAVE?

...

What a wonderful coincidence.

I need to know the source of this because this has to be fake or trolls because all of those in the western hemisphere or in the ocean are just silly and can't be for real

those in the western hemisphere or in the ocean are just silly

Correct

and can't be for real

Likely incorrect. You'd be shocked at how profoundly stupid and/or misinformed some people are in a country that routinely robs its public education system to pay churches and private corporations..

Americans are extremely dumb so this does not surprise me at all.

In fairless they may of just answered wrong

This has to be a joke right? Some dots are in the ocean

Buster: ovbiously, the blue part here is land.

I'd love to think that, but this is America, where basic geography might as well be Egyptian hieroglyphics to most people.

Do you honestly think those data points in the Atlantic are genuine and not trolling?

if it was a fox news poll i'd pick 1600 pennsylvania avenue in DC specifically.

10th grade history we didn't do history, we did maps and had to memorize all the countries. if we sang the song (without mumbling) we got bonus points.

marathon is in greece. i'm pretty sweaty. shower's over there. must be in america

wait hold up i now have to have a head to head competition of who has the better cheese

nothing is more important

every place is known for something. what does ira-ann make? like, big ball of twine? bacon factory? help me out. wastewater treatment? they are number two.

hey! we may be americans, and we may be extreme, but, uh, what was the third thing you said?

hey, i know a couple really nice greek restaurants (and by extension, families) in phoenix. they just made some really big mistakes by moving to phoenix.

Yes

Maybe they're thinking the current Iranian state succeeded Atlantis and they're placing the latter in the Atlantic instead of the Mediterranean, as Dr. Jones correctly did after reading the Hermocrates? ¯\(°_o)/¯
