How the Map Will Fool You

Don’t believe it? Scroll down to the map!

Now that I have your attention, I have a few other facts similar to that. I’ll let you check the map yourselves.

1. Spokane, Washington is further west than San Diego, if only by a third of a degree (117.4250 West vs. 117.1625 West)

2. Mountain City, Tennessee is closer to Canada than it is to Memphis, Tennessee. Check it out here.

3. The western-most state of the United States is Alaska.

4. All of South America is east of Ohio, or Atlanta, Georgia, for that matter.
