Neutral, informational framing presents the Equal Earth projection as an accuracy-improving replacement for the Mercator map, while the negative claim about Africa's size is attributed to critics.
The Mercator projection, developed in 1569, preserves local shapes and navigation angles but inflates areas toward the poles, making equatorial landmasses such as Africa appear smaller than they are relative to higher-latitude regions. The Equal Earth projection is an equal-area map projection intended to show regions at their true relative sizes.
