Holy shit i had no idea Ethiopia was so crowded. it's cool how you can see population swells around the Nile and Lake Victoria too. and the Mediterranean coast of course. and I guess Nigeria is just a good place to live??
Huh, I can read Canada. I call bullshit on the 2x2 thing, though. This is more like 10x10, otherwise you'd see a lot of smaller communities.
It's mostly not surprising, but laid out like that I wonder how long places out of the historical spotlight have been that populous. Ethiopia is quasi-historical enough we can be pretty sure it's long been a center, but the African Great Lakes? Who knows.
Pretty sure that if you can see Valencia and surroundings, you should be able to see Barcelona which is to its northeast, and that small central peak in the Iberian Peninsula looks to me to be close to Madrid, what is it then?
Let's take a moment to appreciate that almost every one of those billions of people was someone doing the dirty and the rest were turkey-bastered in :3
