It is not possible to draw an accurate map because the Earth's surface is a three-dimensional sphere, while maps are two-dimensional representations that distort the surface in some way, such as with shape, distance, or area. This distortion is inevitable due to trying to project a curved surface onto a flat plane.

What four properties of a map can be distorted by projection?
I'm not sure I understand the question. But of course the globe is a sphere, and a sphere can not be correctly represented on a 2D plane (eg. a paper map). The distortion effect is minimised though as the area represented gets smaller. The other is that grid north and magnetic north differ.
