Interestingly, Google displays different maps to different countries.
- kyriakos 10y agogoogle tries to please the population of each country by displaying different names for disputed land depending where its being accessed. e.g. Northern Cyprus is labeled TRNC when viewed from Turkey but when viewed from the rest of the world its not. its their way to maximize their userbase I guess.
