How people have seen the world maps throughout history

It's very interesting to see how people, with their limited technology, have always wanted to know how the earth is formed.

Here it's a website of maps of how people saw the world from before the time of Christ, to after the time of the discovery of America (the continent, not the USA, please, the whole continent is named America).

Places where being a woman is a bad thing

Foreign Policy has given some charts where it shows the bad places in the planet where being a woman is a great disadvantage.

This is something that is still present in our culture. And sometimes, it is very disappointing to see that many of the countries that think and condem other countries that so blatantly brake the human rights of women.

Well, I leave with you the graphic, and hopefully you will know more about where and what type of human rights are being broken against women everywhere.
