It is not flat.It is not a proper circle too.
It is elliptical.(like a orange)
It seems flat as you are in a small frame of earth and you can not see all the earth from the place you are standing.
Thanks.

HELLO MY DEAR FRIEND
NO, THE EARTH IS NOT FLAT. EARTH IS LIKE A BALL- SPHERICAL IN SHAPE. ACTUALLY THE EARTH IS NOT LIKE A PERFECT SPHERE AND NOT PERFECTLY ROUND. IT IS LITTLE PRESSED 2 POLES AND BULGES SLIGHTLY IN THE MIDDLE IS CALLED EQUATOR.
SOME SIX HUNDRED YEARS AGO, MOST PEOPLE BELIEVED THAT THE EARTH WAS FLAT AND THAT IF YOU KEPT TRAVELLING IN ANY DIRECTION YOU WOULD REACH THE EDGE OF THE EARTH AND THAT YOU WOULD FALL OFF INTO THE SKY.
IN 1400 AD SCIENTISTS AND FEA- FARERS BEGAN TO FIGURE OUT THE EARTH MUST BE LIKE A BALL. THEN THE COLUMBUS, AN ITALIAN EXPLORER SETOUT FROM EUROPE IN 1492 AD. IN WESTERN DERECTION WITH THE HOPE OF REACHING INDIA. BUT HE DID NOT REACH INDIA STOPPED AT THE CARIBEAN ISLAND NEAR AMERICA.
VASCO-DA-GAMA WAS A PORTUGUESE NAVIGATOR. IN THE YEAR 1492 AD, HE SAILED TO KNOW ABOUT THE EARTH THROUGH THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE REACHED CALICUT IN INDIA. THIS WAS THE 1ST SUCCESSFUL ATTEMPT OF EUROPEAN SAILORS TO REACH INDIA BY SEA ROUTE.
SOME OF SCIENTISTS LIKE IMMANUAL KANT, CHAMBERLIN, MOULTON AND JAEANS ALSO PUT NUMBER OF EFFORTS TO KNOW ABOUT THE EARTH.
GRADUALLY NOT ONLY SCIENTISTS, SAILORS BUT ALSO NORMAL PEOPLE ALSO DEVELOPED AN INTEREST TO KNOW MORE ABOUT THE EARTH AND USED TO START SAILING IN SEARCH OF NEW FACTS OF THE EARTH.
I HOPE THIS WILL HELP'S U.............*-*
