That's pretty odd. I wonder what the purpose of that map is. Since when did Oxford become the name of a sea?

Note the abscence of the countries that don't matter to Koreans.

Hoowah! Derrek scored some killer weed!

Why is korea so small???

[rapier]

Thats exactly it. Although surely you would include canada.

the world map grows with korean age. By the time they're 35, you can add France (sophisticated language), italy (fashion) and Netherlands (Hiddink) to the world view.
Aprika is also represented by a flag sporting some bongo drums, and thailand by a red-lit flag.

Asian maps usually put the eastern hemisphere on the left side, so east asian countries like Korea are near the center. I would redraw your map with a significantly larger Korea (at least twice the size of japan), placed near the center, and ONLY ONE KOREA. The DMZ is just a "wall of love" or a "wildlife sanctuary" or something of that sort, not a political division. Don't know know?

That's three more countries than the American map of the world.

Also, what on earth is Oxford doing there? It's a right dump!

What does "eastern hemisphere" mean? Never heard that one before. Countries putting there own territories in the middle of maps is not uncommon - in NZ we put NZ's islands in the centre of the map - the Pacific Ocean being the middle, with Asia and a distant Africa and Europe to the left, and the Americas to the right. I have seen Russian and European maps with their territories in the centre also (NZ appears to the far, far bottom right).
