Africa, where the map bears little relation to the people
Two great maps showing where the various European empires cut straight lines directly across ethnic lines. I wish I'd seen these when I was writing up my thirty-second guide to the Middle East.
both posted in the comments of an article on an alt-history map of Africa, showing what it might have looked like if it hadn't been colonized by Europe.
