Everyone should have a globe representation of Earth, shows the true size of continents and countries. A lot of people don't realize most of Africa is above the equator, with it running through Kenya. Europe looks like a tiny little thing in the far north. Washington is at about the same latitude as Turkey. Much of Europe up above where Canada is.
