Maybe an entertaining question referencing the "World Maps" on the wall of the Vatican scenes.

..."I buried Paul..." lol


Ntra la porta tua lu sangu � sparsu,
E nun me mporta si ce muoru accisu...
E s'iddu muoru e vaju mparadisu
Si nun ce truovo a ttia, mancu ce trasu.

In the video, they mention that the equator is 2/3 of the way down in the Vatican map and use that as some sort of Global Warming prediction conspiracy.

But it's hardly that. The Mercator Projection - maybe the most commonly used scale on world maps through the 1990s - has 2/3 of the Earth above the Equator. (hat's why Greenland looks like it's as big as Africa and Alaska as big as the continental US on a lot of maps.

I'd imagine that the Vatican map simply used the Mercator Projection.
