A community for Cartographers with nothing left to lose.

Rules:

Don’t be awful Lemmy Guidelines Still Apply.

We are agents of chaos I’ve created this to be the alternative to the community I used to manage on the website that shalt not be named “mapporncirclejerk”

Live and let die Meme trends happen, so please don’t message mods asking to take down maps that are repetitive to a bit.

Reposts Vs. Covers Not all reposts are evil- if someone posts something that has been done years ago, it serves to bring old memes to the new users. I call these meme covers. However it can be done in excess which makes it a repost and spam. Mods will determine if a post is a cover or a repost.

No impersonating mods I can’t believe I had to make this rule.

No harassing mods on an appeal We can talk it out, and we will be acting in good faith when making decisions. If you disagree with a removal, you are free to message for clarification or to appeal by giving some added context.

Bans Bans will be set to a maximum of 365 days for humans, and a minimum of 365 years for bots. I believe people can change, so if you are banned for good reason, do know that it is not permanent, it is just a way to say “take time to grow and come back when you are ready”.

What the fuck is that Irish map.

Even managed to piss off us Catalans by colouring the Balearic Islands yellow.

Should have been grey.

Why is my country the only real european country on this map?

Is this made by an austrian? ^^

[–] PieMePlenty@lemmy.world 10 points 2 days ago (1 children)

The Austrian making this: hmm, better not make it too obvious.. I'll add a few other countries.

[–] pix_wbmr@feddit.org 1 points 2 days ago

The Habsburgs love that haha

[–] MacNCheezus@lemmy.today 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Well, considering how the last two World Wars started, it seems like a wise move not to upset the Austrians too much.

Greece didn't do a very good job of colonizing.

Scotland also historically fucked up colonialism so badly they became one

[–] MacNCheezus@lemmy.today 2 points 1 day ago

Oh, they did, except it was all islands in the Mediterranean, plus the entire Turkish peninsula and even Egypt at some point.

So I guess you could perhaps call their language Ptolemaic, or Meso-Egyptian. Or better yet, New Macedonian.

There needs to be like 20 more flags for all of Spain.

No. It's all Mexican in the end.

Except for the parts that are Chilean. Search your heart, you know it to be painful.
