A world map where every country and continent appears at its true size: Africa is 14 times larger than Greenland, as it is in reality. This political wall map uses the Equal Earth projection, which the United Nations General Assembly encouraged on 4 September 2026 whenever the relative size of countries matters. It was designed by cartographer Tom Patterson, co-creator of the projection, and we print it to order in our Premium Edition collection, close to you: in Germany for Europe, in Canada for North America.
This edition is entirely in Catalan: country names, capitals, oceans, title and legend. Translated by Raf Roset. It is made for readers in Catalonia, Andorra, the Balearic Islands, the Valencian Community and French Catalonia, and for anyone learning or teaching Catalan.
