Simple, but wrong

Artists quite often take liberties. But in this case whole swaths of the world have disappeared. New Zealand now has only one island. Tasmania is now connected to the rest of Australia. Ireland, Sri Lanka, Newfoundland, and Iceland have all disappeared and there are no islands in the caribbean.

I'm not sure how this made it past the approval stage, but it is a bit lacking. And the irony is that one of the winners of the Global Innovation Awards comes from a country that was left off the map. (The University of the South Caribbean, Trinidad And Tobago won the Winner: Moving Forward with Integrity award.)
