This attempt at creating a faithful world map took a similar tack to the Sinusoidal by pulling out the edges of the map to mimic a sphere Introduced by Gerardus Mercator in 1569, this map was revolutionary for navigation but came with significant distortions The map keeps sizes of all continents and oceans while it reduces the distortions.

AuthaGraph オーサグラフ 世界地図. [2] The map is made by equally dividing a spherical surface into 96 triangles, transferring it to a tetrahedron while maintaining area proportions, and unfolding it in the form of a rectangle: it is a polyhedral map projection. The world map can be tiled in any directions without visible seams

The new Authagraph map uses triangles to create a more accurate rendition of the world. Which, in some ways, makes this weird-looking projection a lot more. From this map-tiling, a new world map with triangular or rectangular outline can be framed out with various regions at its center
