Italy is located in Europe, India is located in Asia, and Japan is located off the coast of Asia in the North Pacific Ocean.

Italy is a scenic peninsula country jutting out into the Mediterranean Sea. It is nestled in south-central Europe and is home to the most rugged mountain range in the world, the Alps. The country is said to be unique looking because of its shape which resembles a boot. The country's most famous and popular region is Tuscany. Due to its myriad of cultures, cuisines and sceneries, Italy is often referred to as a collection of cultures than a single nation in itself.

India is a peninsula country occupying a greater part of Southern Asia. Known for its vibrant diversity, thousands of ethnicities and hundreds of dialects, India contributes to almost one-sixth of the total world population, making it the second-largest populated country in the world after China.

Archaeological evidence and research have shown that India emerged from the Indus Valley Civilization, namely because of their growth on the banks of the Indus river. This civilization was self-sustained and rich in knowledge, resources, agriculture and wealth, contributing greatly to the rest of the world's progress. Today, India remains one of the most ethnically diverse countries and is strongly involved in most global affairs.

Japan is a string of islands located in the western part of the North Pacific Ocean, off the East Coast of Asia. The majority of the archipelagic country's land is divided into four major islands: Hokkaido, Honshu, Shikoku and Kyushu, of which Honshu is the largest. The capital, Tokyo is situated in east-central Honshu and is one of the major populated cities of the world. Four-fifth of Japanese land is covered in mountains and is home to volcanoes both active and dormant. Japan's highest mountain, Mount Fuji, is a geologist-classified active volcano. Since the end of WW2, Japan has emerged as one of the most technologically, educationally and economically advanced countries. Their importance towards ancient traditions and customs has made Japan a beautiful hybrid of tradition and modernity.

If globes are better at showing the Earth accurately, why do we still use maps?
vredina [299]

Answer:

Even though globes are showing Earth more accurately, the maps are still used because they are more practical.

Explanation:

Earth is generally shown with two methods, one being the maps (map projections) and the other being globes. Both are used and will be used, as both have several advantages, but also several disadvantages. Despite globes being closer and more accurate in their representation of Earth, the maps are still used because they are much more practical.

The globes show Earth very close to its true form, though they are made as a ball, not as an ellipsoid. Anyhow, the globes don't have distortions of areas, so the sizes and locations are accurate on them. On the other hand, globes are highly impractical because of their shape, as they are don't often fit in standard backpacks or bags, and can easily be broken or damaged. Also, we can not see the entire Earth at any moment, so it is hard to make comparisons by using them.

The maps, on the other side, do have inaccuracies, mostly by having distortions, be it around the Equator or around the poles. Despite this, they have a relatively good accuracy that in most cases is enough for practical usage. Also, their form and weight make them easy to use, move from place to place, and the entire world can be seen at the same time, thus they are very practical when it comes to making comparisons.
