The World Was Wrong: The Strange History of Maps
The way humans saw the world was not always correct. For thousands of years, maps reflected not only geography, but also imagination, belief, power, and discovery. In this documentary, we explore how people tried to draw the world before modern technology — and how every new map changed the way humans understood their place on Earth. From ancient mapmaking to exploration and the rise of modern navigation, this is the story of how the world was drawn, misunderstood, corrected, and redrawn again. Welcome to PROTO — where we explore the origins of ideas, discoveries, inventions, and the stories that shaped our world. #HistoryOfMaps #Cartography #AncientMaps #HistoryDocumentary #WorldHistory #Exploration #PROTO
