Africa is huge...
« on: August 01, 2013, 09:25:25 PM »


Traditional world maps such as the Mercator often exaggerate the scale towards the poles, giving an erroneous picture of the relative sizes of different countries. For example, Mercator maps show Greenland to be roughly the same size as Africa, when, in reality, Africa is actually fourteen times larger. Africa also looks considerably smaller than Russia on a Mercator map, even though Africa is actually 33% larger. However, generations of navigators weren't bothered much by Mercator's misrepresentations, since they cared most about longitude and latitude, which the Mercator projection handles rather well.

With that much land and resources, they must be a world super power, right?

..Africa is a continent though. How many countries can we fit in Anarctica? Who gives a shit. A bit of an inferiority complex here no doubt (Not OP). Nobody, save for a few militant blacks and university liberals actually care about this "injustice".

Also, does Alaska not count? :(

It is, which is why it is ridiculous to split up European countries to fit into the African continent.   Someone very stupid came up with this pic.  If it is meant to be empowering, they failed.  Its actually very insulting to the various cultures that exist on the African continent.

My post was completely non political/racial/whatever.  Simply pointing out the fact that the continent of Africa is larger than most people realize.

Wiggs will be along in a minute to claim that the map above is actually part of a NWO plan to move a bunch of countries to Africa.

Just sayin'

The south was also ruled by the British and that's where had the israeli style aparthaid at one point. Mandela was a terrorist, etc...

I've lived in North Africa as a Christian, beautiful lands, but tube tuned westerners wouldn't know that besides what they're spoon fed. Of course now it's a mess thanks to 'humanitarian intervention' of the west.

Africa has vast resources and expansive land. Not as polluted as europe or north america... up until recently by depleted uranium garbage from NATO.

Westerners always talk shit about africa and the middle-east, yet why has the west been trying to always subdue it, colonize it, own it, divide it, enslave it, for generations now.

Envy and greed.

The world would be a whole lot more peaceful if it weren't for the greed of the few in the west.

Oh the irony of a man living his life according to a book written by some pedo 1400 years ago, saying that people only know what they are spoon fed.

You are the epitome of ignorance Ahmed.
