The 1st chapter about NZ did a good job of explaining why all 2D maps of the world are wrong. I knew that, but this was a fun way of explaining the differences. And in the future I will take a much closer look for missing countries when I spot a map somewhere.

Chapter 2, about the US-Canadian border. Now I know why its so straight! This was the point in the book where I opened Google Maps to follow along the border.
