For real, same. It’s pretty incredible how much more information you get thinking in 3D (I mean, in hindsight, that should be obvious).
But that one for the Indian subcontinent, I sorta knew that northern India was more populated but never really knew why. Turns out, topography! (Probably). Same with Rome being on a peninsula surrounded by mountains, pretty damn defensible.
The only thing a little disappointing about that Twitter account is that they aren’t standardized. I suspect the British Isles aren’t as extreme as the picture in the feed makes it out to be, but maybe I’m wrong.
