A community for Cartographers with nothing left to lose.
Rules:
Don't be awful Lemmy Guidelines Still Apply.
No direct upload images This is hosted on Lemm.ee- to post images, you must use an image upload service like Imgur to post maps.
We are agents of chaos I've created this to be the alternative to the community I used to manage on the website that shalt not be named "mapporncirclejerk"
Live and let die Meme trends happen, so please don't message mods asking to take down maps that are repetitive to a bit.
Reposts Vs. Covers Not all reposts are evil- if someone posts something that has been done years ago, it serves to bring old memes to the new users. I call these meme covers. However it can be done in excess which makes it a repost and spam. Mods will determine if a post is a cover or a repost.
No impersonating mods I can't believe I had to make this rule.
No harassing mods on an appeal We can talk it out, and we will be acting in good faith when making decisions. If you disagree with a removal, you are free to message for clarification or to appeal by giving some added context.
Bans Bans will be set to a maximum of 365 days for humans, and a minimum of 365 years for bots. I believe people can change, so if you are banned for good reason, do know that it is not permanent, it is just a way to say "take time to grow and come back when you are ready".

Map of Austrialia
Transcription:
A map of Australia with lines marking internal borders marked at random across the country, each demarked region being labelled with a state of Austria. They do not align with real Australian states or the positions of Austrian states. Reading top to bottom, left to right, they read Niederösterreich, Vorarlberg, Burgenland, Oberösterreich, Tirol, Steiermark, Kärnten, Salzburg. Tasmania is labelled "Wien".The map is labelled AUSTRIA.
Below that, a map of Austria and surrounding countries (such as Germany and Slovenia, which are all labelled correctly). Austria is labelled AUSTRALIA. Internally, cities are labelled with the names of Australian cities. Canberra where Vienna should be, Sydney where Salzburg should be, Brisbane at Graz, Newcastle at Klagenfurt, Melbourne at Linz, Gladstone at Innsbruck, and Perth in the far west, near the Liechtenstein border.

basic geography rule
it came to my attention that my previous post on basic geography https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/14668411 needed an inset for Michigan to provide better geographic context, thanks @[email protected] for the catch!
