CNN shared this story today about a teen who wants to be a cartographer. Her dad shared a photo of the map on Twitter. She put together a map of the Western Hemisphere which has something missing…Wyoming.
It also has a ton of other bizarre “updates” to our real geography. Her reason?
CNN reports that 16-year old Anna Calcaterra said: “Nothing against Wyoming, it just doesn’t exist,” … “Having it on the map is like putting Hogwarts or something on it.”
She also added a second Ohio, because, well, you know.
Last night:
Me: Got any homework?
Anna: Nah.
Me: Whatcha gonna do?
Anna: Have a map I’m working on.
Just found this on her desk. pic.twitter.com/9uulpX1Pve
