Upside Down World Jigsaw Puzzle
So why turn the map upside down? Well, why not? It is completely artificial to have North at the top of a map. The convention only began a few centuries ago when European navigators started using the North star and the magnetic compass. Before that, the top of the map was to the East (which is the derivation of the word orientation). How does such a simple thing as reversing the poles influence your impression of what's important? This map's a great way to shake people up and help them question their assumptions, and it's even more fun and challenging when you have to put it together as a jigsaw.
