Maps are flat. If the earth is flat too then it should be possible to make a map of Australia, indeed the whole earth, which accurately depicts the reality of landmass shapes and known distances between places. Why can't you?

I'm interested in this too. If the spherical representation of the planet functions in all aspects of common day life, and there is approved-by-majority flat alternative of FE-ers, FE-ers must be using a spherical representation for everything in their daily life as well, no ? Why has nobody made an attempt to create a detailed map based on the known country-and city locations alone ? That would be my first step if I believed the world to be flat, to create a working alternative.

I'm sorry, I'm a bit confused.

Is this the map? And if so, how am I supposed to read this? That there is a "top" and "bottom" half of the flat earth ?

https://wiki.tfes.org/Flat_Earth_Maps offers a lot of varying high-level sketches of the Flat-Earth.
Without at least a general concensus I'd just be checking one person's view of the Flat Earth.
I'm not sure which map to use though. And I'm unable to perform even educated guess-measurements on distances on the sketched versions of course.

From the link, the last 2 seem to make most sense in terms of layout. (Though it'd then be impossible to have a flight time of 11 hours from the US to Japan, when flying from most of Western-Europe to Japan takes the same time, sometimes more, even though that is half the distance.)

I've come to understand there is not a singular map I can look at, based on responses.
But it made me wonder, if there is no such map, how do Flat Earthers navigate the globe ? Doing a sailing trip, or flying with your personal plane long distances.

Again, if anyone can give me a more accurate map, showing at least capitals on it, I'd be grateful.

So you're telling me of all the hundreds of thousands of FE believers in the world today, none of them is able to draw up a detailed map ?

Hey MetaTron. Thanks for sharing.

I have travelled the Southern Hemisphere. I lived in Australia for over a year. I was more curious about an accurate map, not a hand-made sketch, because I can't make out any cities or countries on this one. Did the Flat Earth community not produce a more detailed version of their agreed-upon map ?

I've lived in Australia, Japan, China, most European countries and Canada. I'm trying to see how the FE community has positioned these countries and cities on the map and correlate that with my experience of travelling (by either train or airplane) between them. I cannot really do that with the sketch you provided unfortunately.

Hey,

just a quick intro: it is my position we live on a globe, in a solar system, in a galaxy and that we are revolving around the sun.
I am not here to convince anyone, or to mock anyone, I am just looking for an answer to a question I cannot obtain talking to other FE-ers.

Could someone provide me with a working map of the world we live in?
I'm an experienced traveller, been around the world a few times and I'd like to see how the locations of cities and countries are positioned on that map.

Thank you
