And some people still think the world is flat....

You could at least mention Portugal, the fact that they maped the entire African continent, and South America too, Spain wasn't the only one exploring in the 1490's ...

I really love those ancient and medieval maps that get the mediteranean coastline so wrong. It's really funny seing the Adriatic sea extended into the Alps region, or the Southern Balkan Peninsula and Asia minor being completely square.

I've always love maps and looking over old and period maps. The stylization (which still occurs), the accuracy, the guesswork, all of it.

"Men died just to explore the same region we can now navigate with our computer mouse"

Right in the face of "the decadent society technology has turned us into".

5:25 How dare you?? This map is fucking Portuguese! Not Spanish!! It is called the Cantino planisphere and it was smuggled from Portugal to Italy!

Ah yes the silk road, it extends across upper T, over the Mediterranean, and into lower left T.

al-Khwarizmi was merely an Arabised name, but he was actually a Persian from Khorosan, in what is now Uzbekistan.

BTW, I love all of your videos, and it's always a pleasure to watch one.

I expected to see the map of Piri Reis, since it is a topic of discussion for a long time now.

Interesting to note that in the "T and O" map at 4:05 each of the three masses of land are assigned between the three sons of Noah: Sem, Cham and Iafeth. The influence of religion...

SirHenryMaximo

That's still very impressive. Those maps aren't even that far off.

Don't appreciate how Portugal (The people who started the Age of Exploration) were not even mentioned once.

al-Khwarizmi was not Arab. He was Persian.
