“Why is north up? Has north always been up? What used to be up before north was up? Does it matter if a direction other than north is up? And have you ever been on a year five geography trip where you got lost in the woods and wet yourself in front of Mr. Dugdale?..”
“… ‘orientated’ means ‘east at the top’, hence the term ‘Orient’… ”

No better way to start the weekend than a new #mapmen episode. "Why is North up?" once again hits a sweet spot. Equal parts silly and informative, with a topic you didn't know you needed to learn more about.
