You’d be surprised how many map enthusiasts there are, if you’re not already one of them. And to those who think that cartography is a legacy from an ancient world, let me tell you, it’s exactly the opposite.

Think of it as a mode of information telling, quite like story-telling, but with its own subtle rules and features. Today, maps can tell us all kinds of miscellaneous things you had no clue existed and the “Lover Of Geography” Instagram page is a perfect online source for that. Followed by 58.3k followers, the page is dedicated to sharing “high quality posts about interesting topics.” They also promise “you won't get bored here,” and they deliver.

Below we collected some of the most entertaining entries from the page, so scroll down and upvote your favorites as you go. After you’re done, make sure to check out our previous posts with unusual maps that may change how you see the world here, here and here.

To find out more about the creator behind the Lover Of Geography Instagram page, Bored Panda reached out to 20-year-old content creator from the Netherlands Melih Orkun Köksal, also known by his Instagram handle @melykoksal. Melih told us that he started this page in December 2019 when he was only 17 years old. “I currently study Earth Sciences at the College of Rotterdam. Other than geography my hobbies are going to the gym and hanging out with friends, not very different from a normal 20-year-old,” he said.

When asked about his interest in cartography, Melih told us that this fascination began in his childhood. “As a little kid as young as 5 years old, I always had a little bit of passion for world maps or countries. I had a huge world map in my room. Every day when I came back home from school I kept staring at the world map in my room because of how fascinating it was to me while most other kids just wouldn't care. I was playing games with myself trying to find all the countries and cities on the map. Or I played geography games on my PC after school.”

In 1672 The Dutch crowds did what crowds do best, namely lose all semblance of sense or sanity. The prime minister of the country was stripped naked, mutilated, and according to some reports, had their livers removed and eaten by the crowds. “C’est la vie, c’est la guerre,” as the French say.

Moreover, the creator of the Lover Of Geography page recounted that he always wanted to know where the countries are located as a child. “I often asked my parents questions like 'Dad, where is this country located' because I was simply so interested in locations. My parents would notice this weird obsession and in a matter of time, when I was 6 years old, I knew all countries and their capital cities,” he said. Throughout his childhood, Melih said, his knowledge of maps grew “so much to the point that teachers in elementary school or my own parents had to ask me for extra information when we were going on vacation to a different country. Kids in school I was asked me to help them with their geography assignments.”

Years later, when Melih was 16 or 17, he saw all these mappers on Instagram and he thought he could do that too, but better. So he wanted a page to share his “own map style and not just stolen maps from Reddit. I wanted to entertain people and educate them at the same time by making maps more fun.”

Recently, Melih has noticed maps popping up everywhere online since 2016. He believes that now younger folks are being targeted with cartography.“I am trying to select maps people will look at without just scrolling. It needs to be interesting and fun but it also needs to be based on reliable sources. So I try to share maps with the combination of these 2 things, the maps that are fun and come from reliable sources.”

Melih also added that sometimes he uses hot topics to gain more audience, “For example, during the World Cup, I made more football-related posts.”When asked whether he ever experiments with the design and style of his maps, Melih said that he indeed has done multiple experiments with the design but he prefers to stick with one style. “So my page will be more recognizable as if it's my own brand,” he said and added that “I tend to go for a minimalist look because it's easier to look at and understand what's going on on the map.”

The amount of disruption a snow storm would cause is really dependent on how often that area even gets snow. If your area only gets snow once every few years then your area is not equipped to handle snow nor are vehicles. Have to wait for the melt. Other areas are well accustomed to driving on snow and ice and do it for months every year.

Even the Helsinki airport is never closed - do you really think we'd ever get a "snow day"? 😅 During my school years just once cross country skiing (for P.E. class) was cancelled when it was - 36C. Rest of the classes went on as normal. Snow was never the reason. 😅

Never has school been cancelled due to snow in Estonia. We tried using that excuse once in school for skipping a day, got written up, parents called and told to put some winter clothes on and said it's not an excuse, it's normal winter. In some areas school might be cancelled if bus cannot reach you but that's small villages and countryside.

My kids have only has snow days maybe twice (my oldest is almost 18) - first was when we got about 3.4 feet of snow randomly in one afternoon - everything shut down. I had to get home from Glasgow city centre to get them from school, usually takes about 20mins, took 3hrs and I was lucky as my dad happened to be nearby so I got a lift with him. Second time was due to about 2feet of snow where we live, which is in the middle of a valley so we tend to have our own wee mini climate compared to surrounding areas. We don't tend to get much snow in Scotland, not enough to have the necessary (expensive) snow plows etc standing by to clear the roads, so on the rare occasions we do get a lot we just aren't equipped to deal with it - I'm ok with it though, a day home with the kids to play in the snow is a treat

My area they don't care about snow, they care about if they can get the school buses started. They run on diesel, so the colder it is the worse it is. If the buses don't start, school is canceled. We still have a lot of kids who walk to school but they don't count, honestly.

We had flurries the next year too, but I doubt we will have that again. For the temp, it was literally like just about freezing point, 32°F

I take it that this is being actively spoken in conversation, rather than learnt. Most Brits will have learnt a second language to some degree at school, and for a long time that was predominantly French, but we also learn German, Spanish and Mandarin, we just don't tend to use them!

When was this compiled? In recent years, the UK has spent a lot of money on converting its streetlights to LEDs, which are much more directional, resulting in a lot less light pollution.

I recentley learned that East Berlin has a large Vietnamese community because Vietnamese workers were encouraged to come there as Vietnam was a "brother state" during the soviet union. I guess that could be a reason for Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia and Belarus...

In Sweden, some have tried to ban the hijab. But that goes against both Swedens laws and the EU laws regarding human rights. So that effort sunk with lightening speed.
