Bad maps

I once tried using a map that labeled the Pacific Ocean as "Here Be Dragons" and thought, perhaps cartography isn't for everyone. If you've ever encountered a map that left you more lost than found, these hilariously bad maps will feel like familiar territory—figuratively, of course.

This collection showcases maps that are more comedic art than useful tools. Each image presents a sarcastic or literal interpretation of geography, resulting in map fails that are delightfully unhelpful. From continents misshapen beyond recognition to labels that state the obvious—or nothing at all—these terrible maps are a cartographer's nightmare but a humorist's dream. The maps playfully undermine the very purpose of mapping, offering a satirical take on how we represent our world. They're the kind of images that make you glad you're not relying on them for any actual navigation.

After browsing through these amusing cartographic catastrophes, you probably found yourself chuckling at the sheer absurdity. The bad maps offered a light-hearted escape, turning the frustration of being lost into an opportunity for laughter. It was an entertaining journey through the world of intentional (we hope) map-making mishaps.

If these bad maps brought a smile to your face, there's more to explore on Thunder Dungeon.
