If youre a visual learner l ike myself, then you know maps, charts and
infographics can really help bring data and information to life. Maps can
make a point resonate with readers and this collection aims to do just
that.
Hopefully someof these maps will surprise you and youlllearn
something new. A few are important to know, some interpret and display
data in a beautiful or creative way, and a few may even make you chuckle
or shake your head.
If you enjoy this collection of maps, the Sifter highly recommends the
r/MapPornsub reddit. You should also check out ChartsBin.com. There
were also fantastic posts on Business Insiderand Bored Pandaearlier
this year that are worth checking out. Enjoy!

much as a rumor of that nature from friends and family, nor are there any British
cultural remnants to be found in Sw itzerland such as English street names, British
food or dr iving on the left side etc. - Sw itzerland is about as non-English as it
gets. Funny though that they should name Liechtenstein as a nation free from
British invasions since Sw itzerland has been saf eguarding their political and
economical interests ( e.g. they are using Sw iss Francs, open borders etc.)
Anyone thinking Sw itzerland has ever been invaded by Britain w ould have to
prove that point to me.

Small bit of humor here: The Brits invaded one summer on a severe

I think w hat she is s aying is that she thinks that this is something that
government shouldn't be involved in. That a company should be free
to do w hat it likes. If it is doesn't of fer it, and it is a company w ith a
female-heavy employee base, than it might go out of business... but if
that's w hat the company w ants to do, then it should have that
fr eedom. I agree w ith her. There are a TON of things just like this that
the government is involved in that it really shouldn't be. As I described
in the situation above, if the government w ould get out of the w ay,
the fr ee market w ould knock out those companies that don't take care
of their employees and/or customers, either by causing a lack of
employees or a lack of customers. :)Reply Like August 15 at 9:39am115

Once again, I w ish that I w as not c olor blind. BUT: The maps could have been
done in grey sc ale or patterns (dots, stripes of diff erent w idths, etc) At least 40%
of men and 20% of w omen are c olor blind to some degree. That is leaving out
about 50% of the population to enjoy the maps. Perhaps something to ponder in

very sorry about the color blind thing. w ish they could find a w ay to

great article w ith maps. love it. One thing caught my eye. the countr ies w here
there are aren't mcdonalds. Iceland is blue, indicating there are no mcdonalds
restaurants there, yet you s how the price of a macdonald's burger f or Iceland?

Sigridur Magnusdottir Top Commenter Saurkrkur, Iceland
Maccas left Iceland after the economic crisis as the price of a burger
w ould have been even higher (McDonalds has strict guidelines
regarding the fac t that all burgers must be the same w herever in the
w orld and so lot's of the ingredients w ere imported). A local took
over the c hain and it is now called Metro, I haven't tried one of their
burgers so c ould not tell you w hether there is a huge difference or
not.

Sigridur Magnusdottir Really? The prices are the same every w here?
When I w ent to the Grand Canon, McDonalds w as the most
expensive place around, triple the price!! Which is okay w ith me, w e
found a nice little cafe w ith better quality food during our stay there. I
haven't had McNasty f ood in years, that is if you w ant to call that
garbage food, yuck!!

Barbara Campbell Not the same price(higher here in Canada than in
US,low er here than in parts of EU) same ingredients. I imagine beef is
rather expensive in Iceland,it sure is in our north. Bread and
condiments also,I'd guess, as not local sourced . Just not a great idea
from an economic or ecologic POV. Not to mention(as you did) it is
crap.

"Borg" sounds so Scandinavian, so it's a surprise it's the most common surname
right in the middle of the Mediterranean (Malta).

They used to have McDonald's in Iceland but due to shipping costsand country's financial crisis it'd become too expensive to operate for
them and they had to pull out
