UN votes to adopt new map that makes our world look very different | CNN

The United Nations General Assembly voted on Friday to adopt a new world map that reflects countries’ true relative sizes, after African nations urged the UN to right a centuries-old wrong.

联合国大会周五投票通过了一幅反映各国真实相对大小的新世界地图。此前，非洲国家敦促联合国纠正这一延续数百年的错误。

这项名为 “修正地图” 的决议由非洲联盟成员国以及巴哈马提出，并以压倒性多数获得通过：164 个成员国投了赞成票，6 个成员国弃权，只有美国投了反对票。
