Video spoilers history, starting with the blitzkrieg on Poland

After getting a satisfactory affirmative answer.

Sima Zhong smiled foolishly again.

"Ah hey, ah hey."

"But I didn't expect the Pacific Ocean to be even bigger than I imagined!"

"When I looked at the world map before, I felt that the Pacific Ocean was not so big."

"But now, after Tianmu's explanation, I finally know that the Pacific Ocean is much bigger than I imagined."

Sima Zhong was still a little confused.

Why didn’t I realize the Pacific Ocean is so big when I looked at the map before?

In fact, many ancient people had the same doubts.

After all, looking at the world map, the Pacific Ocean is large.

But it's not so exaggerated.

Fortunately, there is a follow-up explanation in the sky.

【Through the data, we can see that the vastness of the Pacific Ocean is amazing. 】

[But when you look at the Pacific Ocean on a world map, you can see that it is big, but not as big as the Pacific Ocean.]

【This is actually a deviation of the world map. 】

[First of all, most of the world maps currently use the Mercator projection world map handed down from the 16th century. ]

[Mercatto projection is a cylindrical projection method. ]

[The advantage is that it can ensure that all angles on the map remain unchanged. ]

[However, it will exaggerate the area of ​​the Earth's polar regions, while the low-latitude regions closer to the equator will be relatively compressed.]

[From the world map, the high latitudes, especially the North and South Poles, are simply too big! ]

【That Greenland alone is almost as big as the entire South American continent. 】

[In contrast, the area near the equator will be significantly reduced. ]

[For the Pacific Ocean, the Mercator projection has a particularly obvious effect. ]

[Because the Pacific Ocean is so vast, nearly 16000 kilometers from north to south, it includes most of the latitude of the earth. ]

[Therefore, the area of ​​the Pacific Ocean in the equatorial region has been severely reduced, while the area of ​​the Pacific Ocean in the north and south has been correspondingly enlarged.]

[Finally, the Pacific Ocean's proportion of the world map was underestimated.]

[Another reason is that world maps are generally made with Greenwich as the center. The left and right sides of such maps are the two ends of the Pacific Ocean, making people think that the Pacific Ocean is smaller than it actually is.]

[But if we make a world map with the Pacific Ocean as the center point, the huge area of ​​the Pacific Ocean will almost occupy the entire map, and other oceans and land will be placed on the edge of the map. ]

[But this kind of map obviously doesn't have much practical value. ]

【After all, maps are for people to see. 】

【And the Pacific Ocean is the largest uninhabited area. 】

The video about the sky curtain ends here. As a popular science video with solid content, it also aroused heated discussions among netizens.

《Wow, it's much bigger than I thought.》

"The Pacific Ocean has shrunk by about 30% from its maximum size."

"Pacific Ocean! You are all water!"

《It's so big? There must be a lot of seafood I haven't eaten yet. 》

"Pacific Ocean? Is this the water where the remains of the Great Sage were placed?"

"How come the Pacific Ocean, with all its heavy water, doesn't fall off the Earth?"

"What's the price of a house at Nemo Point? Tell me and I'll give up."

"So those who first opened up the route were really not afraid of death, and they didn't even know if there was an end."

"I didn't know the Pacific Ocean was so big before. The scale of the world map is ridiculous!"

"Humans have only explored 5% of the ocean."

"It feels normal. When we sports students practice swimming, we have to swim ten times a day to warm up."

"Since the Earth is 29% land and 71% ocean, where are the remaining 29% ocean and 71% land?"

《Discharged from hospital!》

Outside the Canopy. Shang Dynasty.

Emperor Xin looked at the image of the Pacific Ocean on the sky and felt the vastness of the ocean.

Then Emperor Xin said doubtfully:
"We, the remnants of the Shang Dynasty, are the ones who crossed this ocean to America?"

tomorrow.

Zhu Di also frowned, then gave an awkward smile that looked a little helpless.

"Haha, it seems that it is quite difficult for the Ming Dynasty to go to the East and conquer the unowned land of America."

And the emperor who was best at sailing.

Emperor Zhao Gou of the Song Dynasty!

See the boundless vastness of the Pacific Ocean.

I'm in a good mood.

"This Pacific Ocean is really scary."

"But I have seen strong winds and strong waves, so I am not afraid."

"The wider the Pacific Ocean is, the more confident I will be in fighting against the Great Jin Army!"

And a new sky appeared.

While the sky curtain was playing, a melodious music sounded first.

Before the sky curtain officially started playing, Emperor Jiajing straightened his Taoist robe and sat upright on the cushion.

He then took out an elixir that he had made himself.

After smelling it, I felt refreshed and admired the sky with a very happy mood.

"I am obviously getting older, but since the sky curtain appeared, I feel that my health is getting better and better."

"Although Tianmu did not directly provide any method for cultivating immortals."

"But the existence of the Sky Curtain itself is a mysterious thing. Perhaps since the Sky Curtain appeared, the spiritual energy in my Ming Dynasty has gradually revived."

"And I finally have a chance to cultivate immortality."

Taoist Master Jiajing, who was in a happy mood, was eating pills while looking at the sky.

But suddenly he heard a scream from the sky, which scared him.

He was so scared that his hands shook and even the peace of mind pill he had made fell to the ground.

Jiajing picked it up quickly.

But then I heard a sound coming from the sky.

[Don’t cultivate immortality! Don’t ascend to heaven! Ascension is just a scam! ]

[The previous race used our race's genius as food. 】

Jiajing was originally fantasizing that he could achieve enlightenment, immortality, and become an immortal.

Hearing the heart-wrenching roar coming from the sky,

It's like being struck by lightning!
However, Jiajing did not panic, but controlled his emotions and said hesitantly:

"Is cultivation a scam?"

"Maybe it's just a joke, right?"

Emperor Jiajing couldn't wait to see what was going on with the sky curtain, but the damn sky curtain remained black and only emitted various heart-wrenching roars and desperate wails.

【Hahahaha, I am a Taoist priest! 】

[Is this... hell? ]

[What? The gods of the upper realm treat all things as straw dogs.]

[Don’t ascend, don’t ascend! ]

【Ascension is a scam! 】

【Ahahahaha, wuhahahaha… wuwuwu… So that’s how it is, so that’s how it is. 】

[What the crazy old man said turned out to be true! Then what about our people... Master, brother, father, their efforts to ascend to heaven generation after generation? ]

[Silly child, this is not the fairyland, run! ] (End of this chapter)
