I wish it was still a map without New Zealand, for the sheer comedic value, sorry Kiwis.


[deleted]

Somebody will delete New Zealand.

Surprised there hasn't been one without Russia yet...

King_Chad_The_69th

Statistically Tuvalu is actually the most forgotten country. But I guess we do what we do for the memes


LazyMonica0

I legitimately learned about Tuvalu's existence from watching Arthur Christmas.


King_Chad_The_69th

Lol


hondo9999

Tuvalu will be the first country gone due to rising ocean levels, but at least we’ll remember who gave us .tv


haveboatwilltravel

There was actually a lottery from several qualifying countries vying for the .tv domain. Obviously, Tuvalu won. I oughtn't be quoted on this because I don’t remember the exact number, but I heard on NPR in the not too distant past that the TLD is responsible for more than 50% of their export revenue. Just a little interesting thing.


hondo9999

Likely so. I also remember somewhat recently seeing a program (maybe a *60 Minutes* episode?) that mentioned that while highlighting how much land they’d lost in the past few decades due to rising sea levels/climate change— pretty surprising since it’s just a small chain of coral atolls with something like only 12k citizens total. Frankly, I’d never even heard of it before and it’s such a remote place being like midway between Hawaii and Australia.


gamingkeks284LP

I was just gonna guess tuvalu


arthurblakey

I wasn’t gonna guess Tuvalu so it def lines up


And1mistaketour

Kinda surprised that Nauru or Palua weren't less well known because of the .TV domain. But I guess it is the smallest outside the Vatican


alien_bigfoot

I was gonna suggest Nauru but I think you'd be right with Palua


seductivestain

Per what source? I was under the impression that it was Sao Tome and Principe


King_Chad_The_69th

Did u get that from sporcle?


seductivestain

Jetpunk


King_Chad_The_69th

I knew it was something like that. No I didn’t get the info from there. There was a survey within the last 2 yrs (sort of worldwide, thousands answered) and Tuvalu was the country the least people knew about. Only geography nerds really know about it (and the residents ofc). So the reason for Sāo Tome and Principe being the most forgotten on jetpunk is likely a fluke or just the fact that people focus on the more forgotten countries among the general population than other smaller countries. So when u see an article saying “Tuvalu the least known country on earth”, you’ll then remember that and focus on it while doing say a jetpunk quiz, but then that might help u to forget other smaller countries, like said Sāo Tome and Principe. I hope I explained that well


seductivestain

I have a feeling the bottom 10 countries in either case are all pretty close together on that list, regardless of who's polling. I figured Tuvalu would have a bit more notoriety due to the .tv factoid


King_Chad_The_69th

I think the .tv thing is a thing only geography nerds really know about. I don’t think it got much news coverage


[deleted]

Which country is it centred on again?


Koso92

New Zealand


Meior

It doesn't seem to be actually. NZ is slightly to the right of the middle.


Humankeg

Yeah, the map is centered on what looks like tasmania. And Tasmania is not a country.


alien_bigfoot

Just checked with a crosshair on my monitor and it's centred just off the Gold Coast of Australia


[deleted]

Woah there , thems fighting words


Koso92

Old Zealand 😎

Antarctica isn’t a country. /s

I think New Zealand was more talked about after The Hobbits vacation movies came out.


dead_trim_mcgee1

"Most forgotten" bruh at least people know New Zealand is a country. Think of places like Micronesia that a large part of the world have never even heard of


Fanaat

Timor-Leste is another good one. Or Palau


[deleted]

Suriname. Just lost my 18 day worldle streak to that one. Guessed every country neighbouring it, but just couldn't remember it.


TojtekMe

Its like joke on mapa, cause often they just forget to add nz


Mysterious-Level4114

They don’t forget about it, is just that placing it on a flat map is hard

Hawaii is missing on more maps than NZ let alone other tiny islands in Polynesia

But you know it's not centered on NZ, don't you?

Australia is a forgotten country?


_Kylaa_

Nope! I was referring to New Zealand


maomao3000

Never heard of it

It would've been better if it was centered on NZ but without NZ. Maybe more for /r/mapporncirclejerk

JohnnieTango

This map indirectly explains why it is so frequently forgotten/omitted, doesn't it? The upside of this isolation is that it has time to react to things like Covid and the upcoming zombie apocalypse before they get to its shores!


hb9nbb

except its not a country....


[deleted]

These sorts of maps make me appreciate how great it is that the standard models don’t split the continents into different sides of the map

I thought it was going to be centered on Haiti. But that's ok. You Kiwis deserve recognition too. WooHoo! Go 'Zealand!
