World Powers 1957

This world map is the frontispiece of Volume I of The Times Atlas. It employs the "Atlantis" Projection, a transverse oblique homographic equal-area arrangement designed by John Bartholomew. This unique projection centralizes the geopolitical focus on Europe, Asia, and North America, while distorting peripheral regions like Antarctica, effectively highlighting Cold War power dynamics.
