We can judge from the various kinds of maps shown in this chapter that
A) sailors during the European Renaissance had paper maps that were far more useful to them than were the "stick charts" possessed by Polynesian sailors and fishers.
B) maps that distort the sizes of Greenland and Antarctica are generally the best, although they make Africa and South America appear to small while simultaneously expanding the size of Europe.
C) the first "true" maps appeared because of modern printing presses in the 20th century.
D) fairly accurate navigational maps could only be produced after the start of the Industrial Revolution.
E) maps have appeared in many forms in different societies and times, including modern paper maps, GPS in cars, the "stick charts" of Polynesia, and the carved maps of ancient Turkey.
