See the World from a Different Angle
What if everything you thought you knew about the world’s layout was just a matter of perspective? The Upside Down World Political Wall Map flips traditional geography on its head—literally. With the south at the top, this remarkable map produced by Global Mapping challenges the standard north-up worldview and offers an engaging way to reimagine global geography.
Australia and New Zealand now crown the top of the world. The Americas shift dramatically to the lower left, and Europe appears intriguingly inverted. The continents and oceans remain exactly where they’ve always been—but your perception of them changes entirely.
