The Mediterranean Swapped With Scandinavia

Map created by reddit user mekbots

As the title suggests, the map above shows what Europe would look like if the Mediterranean suddenly switched places with Scandinavia.

It’s a weird concept for a map that almost works. Especially, since mekbots has gone to all the trouble of adjusting the forest cover of both regions.

For books on European climate, have a look at:

• The Climate of the Mediterranean Region: From the Past to the Future
• The Little Ice Age: How Climate Made History 1300-1850
• The Fate of Rome: Climate, Disease, and the End of an Empire
