What's wrong with the map?
Have the landmass changed?

That's the way the map should be

It's not their fault, you must not use the map, we have many types of maps.

Africa is very huge,

Both maps there in your post don't show the actual size, there is no way you will get that because the Earth is not flat.

It has to with their plan to keep the African continent forever enslaved. The larger the size, the more the feeling of importance and relevance.

Yes, Europeans turned the maps upside down as well. They do not want to be at the bottom.

Of course, they will not show the actual size but they can show the size of a continent relative to other continents. And that is where they lie w.r.t. Africa.

It will take a little time.... do your research first....it will open your eyes to the world we live in.

Go research the Berlin conference of 1884, where Western nations divided Africa amongst themselves. Till today, Africa is still a conquered and enslaved people.

There are continent with map far smaller than Africa yet more developed. Our so called leaders should stop been selfish and stop pillaging the continent

Why don't the white man you laying your blame on loot their own country and store in Africa. The first rule of failure is blaming another man for your woes instead of taking actions.

The best brains are fleeing the country to places where they will be appreciated and get paid at the same time.

SMH. I am disappointed.
The OP took what could have been a perfect exposition about proportions and turned it into some religious nutjob conspiracy.

The reason why those maps are that way is because it is actually hard to convert a spherical world into a flat map. It has nothing to do with a conspiracy.

The current map we use mostly is the Mercator map. And it tries as much as possible to fit longitudes and latitudes into a rectangular grid. Unfortunately Africa lies on and around the equator. So it is naturally going to shrink and become relatively smaller once it is projected thus.

Some things are just common sense. Not everything is a conspiracy.

I've heard enough of this rhetoric. How can you begin to solve a problem without knowing the cause? And that is why all the approaches to fight corruption we've adopted have failed because they were purely western.

Our education system is purely Western and you expect us to have the kind of country where the best brains will stay and not flee the country? You also believe that they will give you a curriculum that will make you truly independent and able to compete with them? Are you saying that you are unaware that our governments, economies, natural resources, and even our social system are controlled by the West? It is even the West that determines who governs your country.

Identifying the problem will lead to the development of proper homegrown solutions that will apply to our peculiar situation. It will end the worship of the white man, hence Africa's liberation from slavery.

Corruption is a western thing? My friend corruption is like a culture in Nigeria. In today's Nigeria straightforward person look more like the weird one while those who corrupt seems to be smart one.

The flight of best brain in Nigeria has nothing to do with a western curriculum but range from poor working environment, low pay, lack of research facilities to grants just to a few.

Like you rightly said, how can one solve a problem when they do not know the origin, but the origin here is not what you are referring to. Nigeria problem is complex one and we need to tackle it from the root.

Your pointing of finger is no different from the religious guys who pray and go to sleep hoping when they wake up their problems are all gone. We can choose to point finger and let the problem continue or face our problem and find a lasting solution
