Distortion
Maps covering a large area suffer from "barrel distortion". In the usual layout of maps, East-West distances are compressed near the equator and exaggerated as you move towards the poles.
The Earth’s three-dimensional surface is commonly represented in two dimensions through maps and globes. Maps use various projections, like the Mercator or Robinson projection, to depict the curved surface of the Earth on flat surfaces, while globes provide a more accurate representation of geographical features. These representations help visualize and understand spatial relationships, distances, and orientations on the Earth's surface.
Elevations (heights) are not easily represented.
Distortion
The main problem is that the earth is approximately spherical and therefore maps covering large areas suffers from distortions due to projection from 3-D to 2-D.
You guys are f*cking idiots if you don't know this end of story
