One advantage to using a globe is that you can more accurately determine distances than you can with a flat map. Flat maps distort the spherical surface and that distortion can be significant over long distances.


How would a globe show a region differently than a map?

A globe is spherical, like the Earth. A map is 2-Dimensional. Maps show the Earth, asphere, projected onto an unnatural shape. This distorts the image, making things look different sizes than they actually are. For example, if you look at a flat map of the world Antarctica looks much larger than it actually is. Spheres cannot be accurately made into flat, rectangular maps. A globe has no distortion and everything looks to be the correct size. hope this helps

There is no map that shows all of the land masses correct shapes. Cylindrical projections will show land masses accurately if they are close to the equator.

Does a globe or map show the size of continents landmasses and bodies of water accurately?

A globe provides a more accurate representation of the size of continents, landmasses, and bodies of water compared to a flat map. Maps distort the size of landmasses as they try to represent a spherical Earth on a flat surface, causing inaccuracies, especially near the poles.
