Information Is BeautifulAnother reasons to tut at the Mercator Map projection - how a circle with a radius of 5,000km, centred on Paris, looks according the Mercator map
S-Man42This was posted in October and it's still not true. The northern bound of your circle is not 5000km away because this would cross the north pole
(red and blue lines mark the ways to two points your "circle" cross. Both have not a 5000km distance)
