If you are passionate about geography, or just want to be amazed by some amazing representation of the world, Map Porn is the Reddit channel you need to know

from the time of school that we are used to seeing the Earth represented on maps and planispheres always the same: just draw a simple line to discover that 50% of the Canadian population lives all gathered in a small area on the border with the United States, and that something similar happens on the African continent. Or revolutionize the entire structure, considering the movements of wolves or eagles instead of altitude and morphology of the territories as indicative data.

Small additions to the classic narrative that sublimate our beliefs: this is what the maps collected from the Reddit Map Porn profile, for interesting maps, created by Patrick McGranaghan in 2011, do. A meeting place not only for fans and fetishists of the genre, but for all those who want to broaden their horizons and be amazed by a discipline that has so much to tell about the world around us.
