That's actually not a bug, it's the definition of the mercator projection - everything at the poles is scaled infinitely. That's why the poles themselves are actually missing on mercator, as they'd be infinitely large. Without the cropping it'd just continue forever like this: https://i.pinimg.com/originals/bf/26/a7/bf26a70c57a3eb00ecd3bf739ce6f953.jpg https://i.pinimg.com/originals/bf/26/a7/bf26a70c57a3eb00ecd3... So obviously if you move a country to the poles, it gets scaled larger and larger and larger.
