Africa is not bigger than I think. I have a globe, I can just look.
DrMaggot
Yes, there's a lot of space. A lot of empty space unsuited for human society. What's the point?
KelbaNembji
No, that is obviously a tilted Australia.

it's a small off-duty czechoslovakian traffic warden
It’s a red and white stripped golf umbrella!

Yes, they do.

But how!?

With water, sunlight, soil and TLC.
The key is TLC. Bananas don’t want no scrubs.
Google says: Sea traders brought them to Africa from the Indian Ocean area.
Makes sense. The island of Zanzibar, a trading hub on the Indian Ocean, has lots of banana plantations.

Please put all the countries away when you're done playing with them.

It's crazy to think that countries can fit inside a continent.

I hate this - eastern Europe is not a geographical unit

The thing marked as 'The Netherlands' is not The Netherlands, unless if it's a (super) simplified shape?

As an African I can confirm that's accurate, we just can't fit Texas in though.

It's weird that people are always talking about Africa being larger than expected, when it's really that countries further from the equator
are actually smaller than represented on most maps due to flattening a sphere into two dimensions causing distortion.

Anyone find it yet?

Damn, there's another one there.

A bunch.
KirinArgent
About 17 trillion bananas squared
CyanideBreathMint
Ten dollars.
Dinkleboop
Gotta be at least 12 bananas
Thetingwitdating
At least four
PostMoThoin
That's a racial stereotype
thefrayedendsofsanity
Definitely bigger than European bananas
Iamatinylittlebanana
Approx. 61500000 bananas
