"Propaganda map"

A propaganda map is very similar to propaganda cartoon. It portrays something in an inaccurate way or created using subjectivity with the goal of persuasion. They cartographer draws the map for the same reason a cartoonist would draw a propaganda cartoon. In the map you can see how each country was seen through the eyes of a Dutch cartographer. It shows how each country acted toward each other during that time period. http://dish.andrewsullivan.com/2013/07/22/maps-as-political-tools/
