Maps can be useful in war, but many of the things they are helpful for can be achieved by other means, at least to an extent.

The elves myth is derived from the story of the angels. The light beings are good angels; the dark elves are fallen angels called Drows.

What is the electrostatic effect? Why would the united nations and the CDC each use a flat earth map without Antarctica? If you flip a magnet and the vortex effect is inverted, would that not suggest that each side's actual vortex spins the same way?
