Cartography maps are the map drawn when they were piecing together the map of the world. They were still figuring out the land so the maps were wrong but now the maps are to an extent right. They developed maps by traveling and exploring the land. They knew there was more land but they didn't know the shape of it. When they explored they could then map it out. Now we use absolute location for the exact location. For that we use longitude and latitude. We also us relative location. When we use relative location it's describing a location form another location. Now we use maps to show where things are and we also use maps to show a story. Thematic maps show how well a country is developed. We still use maps for location and directions.
