[4k]Inverted Earth - It's like a simulation

I made a video of the earth where the land and the sea are opposite, and the process of its change.

The goal of this channel is to create a slightly different map. Please feel free to comment any ideas.

In an alternate universe:
“Oh no the land levels are rising!”
“Use more CO2!”

Apart from the fact that the ecology and weather patterns will be completely destroyed leading to over all downfall off Earth's biosphere because of the significantly smaller oceans it will surely be interesting to see how a world like this will exist and how will the land borders of several countries will look like

World map for aquatic animals be like :

Fun fact: the Pacific ocean inverted to land would be a desert because of how far the water source is to it

This feels like one of those EAS scenarios

[arabfromramla]

Borders in a world like that I’d think would be EEZ’s, and the unclaimed former ocean would be free to take

Me: I finally memorized all countries and cities!
Inverted Earth: We need a new world map with new borders.
Me:

I think it would be cool to see the new countries that are formed with the inverted land

In a scenario like this, interesting undersea phenomena such as Doggerland (an area in the North Sea which used to be above sea level, and even had humans living there during the Pleistocene glaciation), the sunken areas of Alexandria (possibly including the location of Cleopatra's tomb, which some believe to have been in the area of the city that sank into the Mediterranean after being destroyed by an earthquake in 365 AD) and the Yonaguni Monument (an unusual rock formation which happened to appear in such a way as to resemble artificial buildings, streets and other structures through volcanic activity would become visible to the naked eye, having risen above ground. It's fun to think about what these geological features would look like in the open air, and what people would make of them.

I wonder what it would look like if you took into account where all that water would actually go, rather than just perfectly swapping the colors

[doctorjonclemons]

In an inverted Earth where the continents are oceans and the oceans is land, I would imagine oceanic shelves would also become continental shelves and vice versa.

Mountains become trenches, trenches become mountains (the Challenger Deep would be the tallest mountain known as Mt. Challenger, for example).
Lakes become islands, islands become lakes. Think of all the islands within the new North American ocean and all the lakes in the southern Pacific continent.
Rivers (IMO, including dry riverbeds) would become currents in the new oceans and currents would become rivers.
The longest mountain range would be the mid-Atlantic Ridge. There would three mountain ranges converging in the western Indian continent.
The Mediterranean Sea would be a peninsula.

And that's not even including the potential biosphere and political nature of the planet if it has always been this way.

I always wondered about this and couldn't find any videos visualising it, but here we are. I have to say, it's awesome.

Woah Inverted Earth? That's kinda cool

[alifelessordinary]

I loved the video - what a great idea. What i find so interesting is the fact that in the 2D picture we see all that has happened is that the colours used for sea and land has switched over and it looks so different - almost Alien. When i watched the animated video i could then look at the picture and see what it was but when first looking at the picture it felt so weird.

If the land inverted, then the deepest point would be where Everest is, Antarctica would also on average be the deepest ocean, all the other oceans would be pretty shallow, the deeper ones approaching 2-3, 000 m.

[nijlpaardw]

There should be made a movie about this

[rikospostmodernlife]

Congratulations! You just made Inversia!

[badtlife]

So inverted, the Mariana Trench would be the tallest mountain.

[Abdullah-mon]

It’s cool how it inverted so now the contents became the sea and the ocean became the land
