I believe this map is made essentially as an amalgamation of all the years in this gif. It might make more sense to you if you observe it like that.

Ascription of historical and collective guilt, and how to do it, if at all, is a separate topic, but the underlining data is correct.

That’s a good question, but no. It was just a bit of word play.

Antineutrinos are not WIMPs. WIMPs are weakly interacting massive particles. Antineutrinos are anything but massive, they’re almost massless, so massless that they were, for the longest time, thought to be massless. They can be a product of dark matter, as speculated, but they aren’t it tho.

And here’s a map of the recent/currently ongoing Niger coup:

And the ratio of the forces of the Islamist fighters and the ECOWAS coalition forces (currently committed: Nigeria, Senegal, Côte d’Ivoire, and Benin):

Antineutrinos don’t interact with almost anything. They’re just a bunch of wimps. They’re harmless. Neat for mapping nuclear reactors tho.

Context:

• light blue: center-right
• red: center-left
• yellow: liberal
• black: far-right
• green: green/regionalist
• dark blue: conservative
• dark red: left
• gray: not in any group
• white: not in parliament currently

The city itself is blue, but the northern outskirts are purple.

Listen to /ʝ/

Listen to /ʎ/

What I find interesting about this is that this transition also happened in highly unrelated languages such as Hungarian, Greek and Swedish, not only in related Portuguese and French.

• In Hungarian, /ʎ/ in most dialects turned into /j/, but the spelling ⟨ly⟩ was preserved, hence lyuk [juk].
• In Swedish, /lj/ turned into /j/ in word-initial positions, but the spelling ⟨lj⟩ was preserved, hence ljus [ˈjʉːs].
• In Cypriot Greek, /lj/ is often pronounced as [ʝː], especially by younger speakers. In Standard Modern Greek, it always surfaces as [ʎ].

I guess people find it hard to pronounce /ʎ/ but are too inert to change the spelling.

The radius of the currently observable universe is about 50 billion light-years and this map depicts a sphere with a radius of about 1 billion light-years, so if my calculamalations are correct, following through with sphere volume V being V=4/3πr³ this map depicts about 0.001 percent of the observable universe.

At least the vegetation seems to have bounced back in the last 10 years.

You’re right, it’s very far north, next to the border with Sweden.

Btw, here’s the Dymaxion map projection with Tissot’s indicatrix of deformation.

And here’s the Peirce quincuncial map projection with Tissot’s indicatrix of deformation.

And here’s the classic Robinson map projection with Tissot’s indicatrix of deformation.

And here’s the Waterman butterfly map projection with Tissot’s indicatrix of deformation.

And here’s the, oh horror, Mercator map projection with Tissot’s indicatrix of deformation.

Dymaxion map projection does a pretty good job with this info.

Kind of, yes. Surprisingly not that much. But enough to divert all the local water northward apparently.

What’s interesting is that all the other surrounding water flows southward. Burkina Faso even used to be called Upper Volta, because of the largest river there.
