There’s an animated version of this somewhere on the web that might be worth seeking out and being linked in the comments. I can’t find it though.

Animated via plate tectonics?

I thought that was Greenland.

Also, it’s not “the world’s countries” really, it’s “the world’s landmasses”. If we cut out each individual country I bet we could make some really awesome shapes.

Just look at it.

It’s clearly a chicken from the Mercator species. A Peters chicken would have massive legs and a much smaller body. Would be much better eating as far as I’m concerned.
