Why do you use a map instead of globe?
A globe provides a more accurate portrayal of the round world. A flat map is distorted. This is true, but it only matters when you are dealing with a really long distances and high precision. For example, suppose you go boating along either the East or the West Coast of North America, you will never need anything more accurate than a flat map, whereas a globe would be a pain to work with, and a globe large enough to match the scale of a flat map would be ridiculous. If you wanted to navigate between say, England and Australia, then you might very well want to bear in mind that you are moving about the surface of a globe, but even then no navigator carries a globe large enough for detailed navigational purposes. He carries a collection of flat charts, or nowadays perhaps he carries a laptop with Google Earth and a GPS system. Any of those will work very nicely. Also, some of the projections of flat maps nowadays really are surprisingly accurate. Still, a good large globe not only is a beautiful object, but can be very useful in a classroom and for similar work.
