The Earth is a sphere, and true distances cannot be translated from a 3-dimensional form to a flat surface. Some maps are a form of the "gores" that can be cut from a globe to form a flat surface. But most use some form of projection that displays some aspects of the actual surface with some accuracy.
The smaller the area of the map, the less the curvature, which reduces the errors introduced.

They make Maps
Cartographers create maps by compiling and analyzing geographic data. They use specialized software and tools to depict features such as terrain, natural resources, political boundaries, and population density. Their work is crucial for navigation, urban planning, environmental conservation, and disaster response.
