Description
English: A political wall map using the Equal Earth projection centered at the prime meridian. Description on map: "The Equal Earth map projection shows continents and countries at their true sizes relative to each other. Continents keep their familiar shapes and the rounded sides of the map suggest the spherical form of the earth. Straight parallels make it easier to compare how far north or south places are from the equator. The bounding lines around scattered island groups are shown for clarity. They are not actual maritime boundaries. Elevations are in meters."
