I recently found this map on Reddit's /r/imaginarymaps, made by "an amateur historian and geopolitical researcher" who wanted to divide the world into "civilizations."

Apparently, according to a few of the leaders of the church I attend...
I'm either a spirit or a lesser demon. So that's cool, right? Now you can say you know a demon!

That is cool!  Assuming it isn't terrifying.  Either way, interesting.

UUUUUUUH.


Also what does the "enlightened" mean?

Hell if I know. It gets more and more wrong the deeper you look, too.

Am I wrong, or are the 'enlightened Hinu' areas he's got there really Buddhist?

I'm personally baffled by the "Latino civilization".

Oh fuck I didn't even look at the Americas.
Yes I am sure that Argentina and Chile will get on swimmingly forever~

I'm not sure HOW racist this is, but it's definitely blipping my Hitler-meter. Perhaps 0.3-0.5 Hitlers?

Speaking of which, apparently Israel is "Enlightened Muslim".

I mean, what? I could see them just washing it all Sunni and calling it a day, but they explicitly coloured it the same as Turkey...?

Why, don't you know? "Enlightened" means "like Western civilization"! Even a Hindoo, Negro or Moslem can become enlightened if they try to ape Western Man to the height of their natural abilities, even if those are deficient! [/srcsm]

So... South Africa, the place where white people basically came in and stole 87% of the land, sending black people into segregated towns that they couldn't leave without having work papers in the abomination that was Apartheid which lasted until the late 1980s/90s, is the only "Enlightened African" location.

...

This map and its creator. It must die for its crimes, but especially that one.

Also, what is Philippines? It doesn't have a name, and it's its own colour.

Edit: Wait, LATINO?! What the fuck. Is it because of the Spanish colonization of the islands?

[Graknorke]

Race wars are the new [whatever enlightenment is even supposed to mean in this context].

niceme.me

This is an actual site someone made. Why am I not surprised.

[GiglameshDespair]

If cyb.org is not a site about cybernetics I will be very disappointed.

[Descan]

So the Phillipines is Latino, Spain is Western, and Israel is Muslim. Erm.
