Propaganda maps include any kind of map which has been created with a bias in order to further a particular political, social, or economic goal, usually supported by a government, organization, or company. These maps usually distort the actual layout of the land in order to make the viewer feel a particular feeling, whether it be nationalism or fear. This map was created in 1952 by R.M. Chapin and published in Time Magazine. It skews the perspective and layout of Europe and shows the Communist USSR as a large dominating threat that looks as if it could very easily swallow up the neighboring European countries.
