    For hundreds of years, people have thought that Africa is much smaller than it actually is, according to most world maps. According to “5 Maps and Charts That Will Surprise You” by Ezra Klein, “Most maps you see are based on the ‘Mercator projection’, so named for Gerardus Mercator, who came up with it in 1559… Under the Mercator projection, for instance, Africa looks to about the same size ass Greenland; it’s actually 14 times larger,” (Chart 3).

The dry season (December to April) and the rainy season (May to November.) Costa Rica also has four volcanoes, two of them being active. Arenal, this is their most active volcano, erupted in 2010.
