I always find it funny when out of touch and very nearly totalitarian regimes have propaganda that is so painfully obvious that everyone but them realises it (think RUSSIA). But there are some fabrications that even RUSSIA could not get away with, something as undeniable as geography, that is MAPPING.

However there is one country out there that has such a tight grip on it's own people and media that they have found it relatively easy to fool their entire population in to believing something as absurd as a redrawn map. Argentina is the country I am talking about, and the reasons for their 'modifications' come from their historically baseless claim to the Falkland Islands (but that's something else entirely). Certain maps in Argentina show not only the Falkland Islands, a British territory as a posession of Argentina, but far larger than they are in reality and placed closer to Argentina than they really are.
