If I have given the chance to change the map of the world with this modern world-
system map, I would rather not. The fact that it is the first and original and it is
how everything started. We need to preserve the history because it defines us.
History is the old story of us, man, animals, plants and many more. Original map
of the word is easier to understand and use because we are used to it.
Everything in the past defines us and has also helped us a lot in our journey to
the future.
