We do love maps here at the Daily Create.

Try this site that gives you a bit of control over world maps. It allows you to re-orientate the world map to specific countries (so you change the common perspective found in so many maps).

You have a few different map types to play with, too. Maybe you make a political statement? Or maybe you just make some art!

    These maps created by #clmooc network have inspired my "who's connected" ideas since I first saw them with #etmooc in January 2013, just before the first CLMOOC began. https://clmooc.com/history/

    @creating #tdc4919 The world should take on an Icelandic perspective, the map atop the rocky figures from Vik, described in Wikipedia

    "former trolls which were caught outside at dawn. The sea around them is rather wild and stormy, so travelers will not be surprised to discover a monument to the memory of drowned seamen at the beach. "
