Greenland, North america and antarctica are those countries that show a large difference between their size on the map and on a globe.

Explanation:

  • The distorting in the scale due to Mercator projection that was given in the 16th century flattens out the globe by paralleling the meridians that are imaginary lines that encircle the globe and pass through the poles.  
  • This explains why Antarctica is so numerous and Africa is small comparatively. Green land is wider and broad in the northern hemisphere and this difference is due to the 2 and 3-dimensional projection.
