In addition it exaggerates the north –south dimension,since the parallels are not spaced evenly between the equator and the poles,as they are on the globe,but gradually draw farther and farther apart with increasing distance from the equator.
On a Mercator map the mathematical location (latitude and longitude)of every place is accurate,but areas near the poles are stretched out of shape and are greatly distorted in size,with the familiar result that Greenland appears bigger than South America,though in reality it is only one-eighth as large.
