both can tell us about world
Similarities: they both distort the size of the planet
Differences: maps distort the shape, and depending on what type of map its area as well.
A globe is round and a map is flat you numpty
a mapis a peice of chicken, where as a globe can be called a platpus
grid lines and political boundries
They both tell you where places are.
It is to do with the scale used on the maps and globes.
A map is a two-dimensional representation of the Earth's surface, while a globe is a three-dimensional model of the Earth. Maps can be easily folded and transported, while globes are not portable. Maps can show a larger area, such as an entire country or continent, while globes provide a more accurate depiction of the Earthβs shape and size. Maps can be customized and have specific projections, while globes provide a more accurate representation of distances and directions. Maps can be updated and revised easily, while globes are static and do not change.
Globes usually depict reality. Maps usually have some distortion to them.
Some maps and globes ... such as those with a line printed every 15° of latitude ... have lines marked at 45° north and 45° south. Some maps and globes ... such as those with a line printed every 10° of latitude ... don't. Some maps and globes have no lines printed on them at all.

Maps and globes both do the same thing - show a representation of the earth in different scales. the difference between the two is - a globe is a 3D version of a map !

Globes and maps help you see our geography in an easy way. Whether you are traveling, studying, or just curious, maps and globes can show you oceans, cities, states, countries, and continents.
how are maps and lobes not the same
on maps yes, on globes no
vvv
Globes are much more realistic and accurate than flat maps.
It fixes the relationship between distances in the real world and on the map or globe.
