Cool maps [View all]

From my email... sorry, but I do not know the source(s) of these maps.


This map shows the world divided into 7 sections (each with a distinct color) with each section containing 1 billion people.


This map shows (in white) where 98 percent of Australia's population lives.


It may not come as a surprise but more people live inside the circle than outside of it.


This map shows countries (in white) that England has never invaded. There are only 22 of them.


The line in this map shows all of the world's Internet connections in 1969.


These are all the rivers that feed into the Mississippi River.


This map shows how much space the United States would occupy on the moon.
