Propaganda Map



A Propaganda map is a map used to portray information in a particular way the artist or creator wants to portray it to possibly sway an opinion of the reader or just to show an enhanced map of information to show proportions. These maps are used to help further prove a certain belief, idea or cause and to help damage an opposing belief, idea or cause. These kind of maps help to promote a certain idea the creator wants to promote, sort of skewing the look and shape of the items on the map. This map shows both the United States and the USSR during the cold war and what is associated with both countries. This is a propaganda map that helps promote the united states showing Taiwan, our ally as the same size as China, their ally, when in reality they are not the same size and so on.
