Really charming "topologists world map."

Forget size or position, this map *only* shows which countries border which other countries: http://tafc.space/qna/the-topologists-world-map/

@elizayer nice, but the denmark-canada border is missing.

@yetzt @elizayer So is the French Brazilian one. 🤓

@schm @yetzt I think the French-Brazilian border is represented as one of the "exclaves" - the one-letter F bordering Brazil represents France (but yes, detaching exclaves does decrease the full force of the exercise!)

@elizayer @yetzt Oh. You're right my bad. I was hoping for a big connection from Europe to the Americas and didn't see any. I didn't notice the exclaves.

Now I also see the Dutch-French border on St. Martin.

Thanks for the explanation.
