It is insane how the big mistake lasted. After seeing each country before and after side by side on a website, it's insane how big the difference in false sizes of countries compared.
Like Greenland vs Africa, come on man!! This must be a joke (and still lasted 457 years).
Do you think the UN was using Mercator before this vote?
I don't think so. They usually don't use what has not been agreed on officially.
