Find two things wrong with this map

http://www.zen-style.com/images/vakaworld_050320.gif

oh my, only 2?
1) leaning tower of piza is in spain
2) portugal is labeled france

The whole thing.

there's a lot of things wrong with that map.

But I'll start with two.

1. Greenland is not owned by the USA, as the map states.
2. Antartica has palm trees on it

nothing, its all accurate, they even put atlantis in the right spot...

Australia has been replaced by Atlantis, and Oz is included as a Kangaroo. The Amazon is in South Africa.

Edit: And Penguins belong in the South Pole

I guess they didn't get the word that we deposed the Yankees last year.

Yeah, last time I checked Shanghai wasn't in the middle of North Korea. :P

florida is now disney land
canada owns alaska
australia is in europe
new mexico is in the middle of the ocean
chile is in africa
california is in canada
prague should be in europe not U.S.
jurassic park is on it
madagascar is now thailand and taiwan
the eiffel tower is in england
the sahara desert is now in the middle of brazil
the galapagos islands are in canada
portugal is in south america
mexico is a bit too far north
hong kong is in japan
arizona is in africa
ummmmmm.............. That's what i've found so far.

Australia isn't in the EU...
New Zealand is NOT Tasmania (Dammit, we're a whole country of our own :( )
Oh...New Zealand is also definitely not in Indonesia...

Penguins don't just belong in the South Pole though you wouldn't find them in the North Pole...also, Antarctica is a helluva lot bigger than that...palm trees or not.

Oh no, I pointed out more than two...

dont feel bad, look at my list i named 16

ROTF, that map is hilarious! :D

There are no RED or BLUE states in the USA! :eek:

Norway and the larger part of Sweden is labelled Holland. The rest is called Europe.

Too bad you only asked for two¨.

Atlantis is in the place of Mu instead of the North Atalantic.

Mormonland is considered part of Los Vegas.

Considering I had a class full of students who thought that the US was over "that way" (waving towards China) and couldn't find Japan on a world map, it looks right to me. ;)

uh, im gonna go with, finland is called europe, and macdonalds is a country?

Id be happy to give you several more if you want.....

Here's what I found wrong:
1) The Galapagos is in the Canadian arctic.
2) Canada only covers some far north part of Alaska and the NWT
3) Mexico is in Alaska and the Canadian arctic, and bordering Canada
4) California is in northern British Columbia
5) Hollywood is located in what is possibly some boring forest in Manitoba
6) McDonald's isn't a real nation
7) Las Vegas is located way too inland
8) There's no big mound thingy in part of the US
9) Seals don't live in the Great Lakes as far as I know
10) Prague is in Pennsylvania and not where it should be, in Czech Republic.
11) Disneyland isn't a country, either
12) Washington is located way too far north
13) Godzilla is destroying the White House, not Tokyo.
14) The Statue of Liberty is in the ocean.
15) There's the Bermuda Triangle!
16) South America is located where Mexico is in RL.
17) Hawaii is too close to RL Mexico.
18) New Mexico is an island.
19) Spain is located in Central America and it isn't colonized by Mexico.
20) Scotland is located in Hispaniola.
21) There's some weird rhino thingy with flag behind it in Venezuela.
22) Portugal is located where all of those nations with "Guiana" in their name is.
23) Inca Empire exists.
24) The Sahara takes up most of Brazil.
25) Buenos Aires is located in the centre of Brazil.
26) Machu Picchu is floating in air.
27) Chile is part of Argentina on that map.
28) Dinosaurs don't live anymore, and Jurrasic Park was a movie.

Japan seems to be Floating, and Hong Kong is not in Japan.

I think a better task would be finding two things right with that map.

Did anyone else crack up at posters having just two things to say about that map? :D :D

I think a better task would be finding two things right with that map.Psst... several of the names are spelled right.

It shows a penguin on the north pole. :confused:

I found 2 things right!
The Indian Ocean and South Africa!

Ok...here is the original idea for the map :) I think it's very clever.

13) Godzilla is destroying the White House, not Tokyo.

I thought about pointing that one out, but then I remembered that Matthew Broderick movie where Godzilla attacked the Met Life building, and this map puts the White House in New York.

Oh,
1) White House is in New York.
2) The giant lizard in the Matthew Brodderick movie wasn't godzilla.
