Our Dumb World: The Onion’s Atlas of The Planet Earth
Our Dumb World: The Onion’s Atlas of The Planet Earth
Posted by Viola Woolcott
“Our Dumb World” is the 73rd Edition.The book doesn’t just make interesting reading, it is also packed with beautiful, inaccurate full-colour maps including a fold-out world map at actual size. You will learn about each and every country from Afghanistan, to the Ukraine and features lots of incorrect statistics on all of the Earth’s 168, 182, or 196 independent nations.
In order for us to understand current events and to understand what’s going on in the world right now, a context of fake world geography and history is necessary. Needless to say, that is the reason why “The Onion” published “The Atlas of the World”. The book is here to help us.
News that at the moment don’t make sense to us, will all of a sudden make sense and at that point a new period of enlightenment begins.
Amongst other things, “OUR DUMB WORLD” contains other things such as rejected flag designs, how the Earth is broken down from its molten core to the outermost sphere where heaven is, the yearly income made in widescreen televisions; and how about finding out about the most annoying handicrafts.
