Gerardus Mercator was a 16th-century Flemish cartographer known for creating the Mercator projection, a cylindrical map projection that preserves angles and shapes but distorts size, especially near the poles. Arno Peters was a 20th-century German historian and cartographer who developed the Peters projection, which represents land masses in their true proportions but distorts shapes. The two projections sparked debates about representation in mapping, particularly regarding the implications of size distortion for geopolitical perceptions.
