Turn your worldview on its head—literally. The Upside Down World Political Map by Global Mapping challenges the traditional north-up orientation and invites you to see the world from a refreshingly different vantage point. With South at the top, this map encourages us to rethink conventional geography and appreciate how relative our perspectives really are.
This beautifully designed and politically up-to-date map features country boundaries, major cities, and flags of the world, complete with country information. It’s a fantastic conversation starter, a visually striking décor piece, and an educational tool all in one.
