As a direct descendant of the first single cell organisms, I demand Pangaea back

Mongolia wants to redraw the map of Asia back to the year 1250. Putin might want to check that out because it involves most of modern day Russia

Next Putin will pull out a map from the 1500s and show that USA is not a country 😂

Imagine if you pulled out a map of the Mongolian Empire in front of him. Dude would lose his mind.

I think it would be hilarious if Zelenskyy pulled out a map from before Moscow existed and showed Kiev on that map before Moscow… lol

As a Pole, I'd gladly approve russian borders from 1610 ;)

the same land masses existed through all human history ... The names given to these places does not matter ... what does matter is allowing people to live in peace ...

Zelensky should pull out a map of Pangea to really throw Putin off

As a British citizen I would be all for digging out the older maps. Sun never sets.

Japan should pull out a map from 1942 that will verify that half of Asia belongs to Japan

[Felixxxxxxxxx]

Now I finally understand why Russia is bombing hospitals, raping, torturing and murdering innocent people. Thanks for clearing that up. I found the actual map he is referring to, and the Oblast Ingermanland, where St Petersburg is located was a part of Sweden back then, so guess everyone knows what Sweden needs to do next .

The kind of guy to keep showing around photos from the beginning of 6th grade, when he was tallest in class for a couple of weeks.

Pretty soon the man showing him the map will disappear.

And the Brits pulled out a map & ruled most of the world again

I can confirm as a Dutchman that South Africa, Sri Lanka, New York and Indonesia belong to the Netherlands.

In this map Crimea isn’t actually a part of Russia and the land where Saint-Petersburg was build is a Swedish territory. This old man went completely insane :D

[margarethakloots]

I have always wondered why
the Russians are so positive about this man.
