they are all distorted. distorted- misrepresented, garbled. ---- ur welcome! ; )
When maps lie flat, they lie because they aren't accurate representations of earth. It means all maps have some distortion- when put flat, it distorts the shape of the land because the earth is actually a sphere.

Flat maps were drawn that way, because no one knew that the earth was round, until after Christopher Colombus.
A drawing of all or part of the Earth on a flat surface is called a map. Maps represent geographical features, boundaries, and various data in a two-dimensional format. They can vary in scale and detail, serving purposes such as navigation, education, and planning. Different types of maps include political maps, physical maps, and thematic maps, each highlighting specific information about the Earth's surface.
Flat maps are convenient for easy storage and portability due to their compact size. They provide a quick overview of a large area and are simple to use for navigation purposes. Additionally, flat maps make it easier to compare different locations and distances in a straightforward manner.
