Where's Aotearoa New Zealand?

Sometimes map makers just feel the urge to move Aotearoa New Zealand. Don't ask. I don't know either.

This is just a super cool visualisation but also yes, a #mapswithoutnz

An oldie but goodie. High art Ikea style with a fine example of a #mapswithoutnz

The map is interesting... the associated article even more so. I had no idea.

A bit political this one. Literally. And to those in America who say we're a communist authoritarian hellscape, yeah nah.

Notgonnalie, I accidentally replied politically to this one. My apologies as I try to keep this account neutral. OTOH, interesting map.

Prison population per 100,000 people

Do we have a 'national day'? I'm going with the notion that the chart is referring to Waitangi Day but that isn't revolution or unification, right. I think we should petition to be moved to the other category.

Another form of #mapswithoutnz is basically just not including a legend for Oceania at all. So in calculating the percents is the entire population of the Pacific just count as a rounding error? It's quite possible tbf.

[Simon Kuestenmacher @simongerman600]

Map by @PratapVardhan shows the global population by country. This is based on the latest UN data. Worth mentioning that researchers like @fuxianyi and analysts like @PeterZeihan suggest China might have over counted its population by over 100 million people.

@NeerIlin I love that Google Translate fixed your typo before you did. Thanks for the boost!

@clntgrnhstn @TerribleMaps Yeah that's not why Australia has a high rate of incarceration, mate. I say this as a neighbour.

[Where's Aotearoa New Zealand? @WhereZealand]

Apparently, our participation in 5 Eyes is so secret squirrel that it takes a #mapswithoutnz to describe it correctly.

Alternatively, they just stuck us under the legend because why not.

[Council on Geostrategy @ConGeostrategy]

In another big win for the #UK, #Australia has agreed to participate in the @RoyalNavy’s SSN(R) programme, binding the two nations together in the #IndoPacific for the next half century. Take a look at our handy map to see what this means geopolitically! 🌏🇦🇺🇬🇧🇺🇲

[Where's Aotearoa New Zealand? @WhereZealand]

Simon is at least consistent in finding maps where we are cut in half. So. Does that make it June 1012?

Maybe we just need our own Aotearoan calendar. Something that starts with Matariki and ends more or less whenever we feel like we're done with the year.

[Simon Kuestenmacher @simongerman600]

What year is it right now? The answer is more complex than you might think 😉 Source: https://t.co/ujWUjI8dYg

I knew there was something bothering me about this map. On the same web site, you can also find this one. Aoteoroa New Zealand is a net calorie exporter. The bottom line is if we switched out of cows, we wouldn't have to important anything but exotics.

[Where's Aotearoa New Zealand? @WhereZealand]

Okay, I really don't know what to say here. It's not a #mapswithoutnz specifically but it sure as hell isn't a map /with/ us either. Make up your mind. Also the tiny print... it's grain. Net calories in New Zealand with all that milk powder have got to be positive, me thinks.

[Simon Kuestenmacher @simongerman600]

This fantastic map by @PeterZeihan shows which nations depend on food imports and which nations can feed themselves (and export the surplus). Rich oil states don't need to worry as they can just throw money at the problem. China is at risk ie. Source: https://t.co/r2EfdvG77C

@DavidWDonnell1 @GSGL15 Spatial orientation guy. It has always been a strange artifact of history that north is 'up' in maps. Legitimately no reason why it should be.

[Where's Aotearoa New Zealand? @WhereZealand]

@GSGL15 @DavidWDonnell1 I'm a fan of all South Side Up projections, tbf.

[Andrew Tyrrell @SouthArrowMaps]

I’ve just spotted this map on the wall of a tiny rural coffee shop in Utah.
Anyone know what projection this is?

I just love the idea that the mapmaker spent the time to get this /just/ right and then said whoops! let's tack on New Zealand. Thanks to @nerwende for throwing this our way.
