Δέκα χάρτες που κανένα σχολείο δεν θα διδάξει...



Oι χάρτες μπορούν να γίνουν ένα εξαιρετικά ισχυρό εργαλείο για την κατανόηση του κόσμου. Χάρτες που αποτυπώνουν οικονομικά, θρησκευτικά, συναισθηματικά, γλωσσικά στοιχεία που κανένα σχολείο πρόκειται ποτέ να διδάξει παρουσιάζονται στον ιστότοπο digg.com.

Είναι όλοι εξαιρετικά ενδιαφέροντες. Διαλέξαμε δέκα που αποκωδικοποιούνται εύκολα.

Η καλύτερη και η χειρότερη χώρα για να γεννηθεί κανείς



Ποιοι λαοί είναι περισσότερο και ποιοι λιγότερο συναισθηματικοί



Οι καλύτερες και οι χειρότερες χώρες για τις μητέρες



Οι ανεπτυγμένες χώρες της παιδικής φτώχειας



Οι χώρες που οι άνθρωποι νιώθουν ότι έχουν αγαπηθεί



Οι λαοί που καπνίζουν



Ποιοι αγαπούν, ποιοι μισούν τις ΗΠΑ



Ποιοι είναι φιλόξενοι, ποιοι όχι



Ποιοι είναι άθεοι



Ποιοι είναι ανεκτικοί σε άλλες εθνότητες

40 Maps They Didn’t Teach You In School

By the time we graduate high school, we learn that they never taught us the most interesting things in there. Sure, you might be able to name the European countries or point New York on the map, but does that give a you real understanding of how the world functions? To fill this gap, we have gathered a great and informative selection of infographical maps that they should’ve shown us at school: every single one of these maps reveals different fun and interesting facts, which can actually help you draw some pretty interesting conclusions.
What makes infographical maps so engaging is how easy it becomes to conceive graphically presented information. The best part, there are brilliant services like Target Map that “allow everyone (from individuals to large organizations) to represent their data on maps of any country in the world and to share their knowledge with the whole Internet Community.” Just choose a country and a way to create your map by color, type values or by uploading your excel files (you can even use your zip / postal code column to get the best and most accurate maps.
Without further ado, we invite you to learn things like most popular sports in different countries, who has the largest breasts, red hair map of Europe, world’s most consumed alcoholic beverages, or which brands dominate in different states of the USA.
Trust us, these are way better than the ones they taught you at school!
