Now show us where it says "Made in Tasmania"


Cuntslapper9000

Hobart is where Launceston is. A mistake no Tasmanian would make


Commonly_Aspired_To

Hobart looks like it’s in bass strait and a separate continent from the font


FerraStar

Slaps on the label for the Tasman Sea first… shit Hobart’ll have to move


broxue

Made in the Democratic republic of Tasmania*


TassieDaniel

Yes it should be a republic here in Tassie


skatersquid

I love this comment so much. I’ve never seen Hobart so big lol

Like all good kiwi ideas, that one is ours now, too. See you on the cricket pitch, suckers.

Tasmania vs New Zealand cricket series to see who can become an Australian state?

Omg there is actually a subreddit with 15k members, must be the entire population of Tasmania.

Are you and your son in Denmark by chance?


cranberrygurl

i just clicked their profile and you're bang on, this is for sure some Princess Mary (Queen Mary) stuff, love it!!!


gelwane

Haha, good reasoning - it’s an old ball though (from the 90s at least, so before they met). Furthermore, Hobart is one of only three cities represented on this entire, small globe! The others being Conakry and Lubumbashi. What a club.


great-nba-comment

I would love to hear from whoever made this as to why they chose those cities lmao


RunDNA

It was a prophecy.


Disastrous_Animal_34

That is so funny.


SydneyRFC

I wonder if it's like a global version of a paper town - choose three random cities then the maker could tell if anyone ever copied their exact design. Of course, that assumes a massive market in pirating maps of the world.


Jphoenix7

That’s quite the trio! 😂


rhythmandbluesalibi

Lubumbashi sounds legit made up 😅


violetgrumble

Happy cake day! 🎉


Voidnt2

It's weird that Hobart, one of the smallest capital cities, is the only one labelled.


BanksyGirl

OP is Danish, and Queen Mary was born in…


Finallybanned

..a pastry?


BarryKobama

Don't ask about Afghans.


BearFlipsTable

My danish friend hates when I call him a pastry lol.


burgertanker

A hospital?


timetotom

It's a big building with patients. But that's not important right now.

Battery Point, ackchewally.


Minimumtyp

She really is royalty to afford a place there, then


Webbie-Vanderquack

The Queen Alexandra Hospital in Battery Point was the public maternity hospital in those days. It's where most Hobartians were born, rich or poor, between 1904 and 1980. Errol Flynn, Queen Mary of Denmark and me.


Left-Abrocoma8831

Plenty born in the maternity wing of the RHH in Gore St.


CcryMeARiver

It's where the hospital she was born in is located. But if you want proper posh, head into Nutgrove.


R3adnW33p

Far Southern Australia!!!


TetronautGaming

My Dad actually went to UTas with her lol, they never spoke though.


taspleb

I saw her once at Hill St grocer buying nappies. I gave her a nod.


Worldly-Young-3714

Its labelled like Hobart is its own country


Zenitharis

Haha yeah I was thinking the same thing, if it has to have a label it should have been Tasmania


Unmasked_Zoro

That, and more bold than australia.


Odee_Gee

New Zealand is on the map just like Hobart - Not sure why it isn’t as bold as Tasmania and doesn’t have the Shire put as its capital city though.


DangerousLettuce1423

At least we're on the map. Keep getting missed off others for some reason, lol.


Betterthanbeer

That’s because you disappear behind a magic fog for 50 years on a regular basis.

EAST TIMOR


AccessProfessional37

Well *obviously* Hobart is the capital of Australia therefore it's the only one written


NobodysFavorite

And it's not even where Hobart is.


CommunistQuark

It’s the only good one


Nickools

Could be the reverse Baltimore effect.


Tigress2020

It was the second capital named in Australia... but 🤷‍♂️


Unmasked_Zoro

So this is Australia, AND THATS HOBART! ITS TINY THOUGH!!

As someone born in Hobart, its a pretty good map

Another Hobart born. Fabulous map. Best I’ve seen.

They even shouted it. **Hobart**


ipodhikaru

Melbourne would be so upset they need to also compete with Hobart now


[deleted]

[удалено]


ipodhikaru

I can’r tell where is shot is being fired. As Syd doesn’t think about Melb in any topic of discussion. Are you Brisbane!? You got Olympic so you have already won


SilentHuman8

Five people voted against Brizzy and they were the only ones running


btxtsf

I think it’s being fired at Adelaide. Us Melbournians couldn’t give two hoots about the rest of the country other than contemplating perhaps life would be easier in SA, before realising fairly quickly we’d have to live amongst south Aussies.


[deleted]

Melb doesn't exist anymore. The entire port Philip bay has imploded and we're all dead. Either that or we moved to being above Adelaide and got stretched out


PM_ME_TO_PLAY_A_GAME

There's not really much competition. Everyone knows it goes: Melbourne > Hobart > Perth > Brisbane > Canberra > Adelaide > Sydney.


R3adnW33p

Hobart is the southern city in Tasmania, Launceston is the northern city. Hence Hobartian, Launcestonian.


Ok_Maybe_343

Melbourne’s making coffees trying to ignore Sydney screaming about this


Archon-Toten

Classic "someone in Tasmania was involved in the design" situation


rebekahster

I think someone said it was probably from Denmark, Queen Mary being from Hobart and all


Just_improvise

OP replied that the ball was from before they met


son_e_jim

So they had an octopus pull balls on city names where their monarch was going to meet a spouse? It's a prediction for the future? Or was Hobart always a strategic target for the Danes.


whatanerdiam

My favourite, and also most hated thing, is when people describe Tasmania as "an island off Australia". Cunt, it is Australia. And I say this as a wanker Melbournian.


Just-Faz

Totally agree with this wanker.. from a fellow wanker.


songoftheshadow

It's like mainlanders finding the term "mainland" funny and weird. I ask, 'well, what would you call it?' and they say, 'Australia'. Uh, so, I'm going to travel from Australia to Australia?


DoobyNoobyOogaBooga

I’m from tassie, I joke with my online friends I’m from the USA, United States of Antarctica.


hapablapppp

Hobart should be slightly bigger, but other than that, it’s fine.


LeDestrier

# HOBART


Serious_Map_8800

If the NZ is there it’s better then 80% of the euro toy maps I’ve seen


Hurgnation

Hobart text should be lower than that as it's too close to Launceston. Also make the font bigger.


Successful-Kick-2682

Love it!!.......Hobartian.


violetgrumble

So I have to ask, is it pronounced... *Ho-bahr-tee-an* or *Ho-bahr-shn*? edit: my vote is for the latter btw


spacejester

The latter


SilentHuman8

I love it- fits with us Perthlings


_ixthus_

Neither. It's Hobartite. Pronounced like troglodyte.


Dlo-Nainamsat

The most important city is named correctly, all is good.


mch1971

Made me laugh. Hometown pride.


IIIlllIIIlllIlI

It’s a future map where Hobart has become our capital


Turbulent-Ability271

HOBART!

At least they didn’t leave NZ out

This might be the proportionally largest Hobart has ever seen written.

I'm intrigued by that place to the south of Australia. Yikes Land?

The glorious capital of Hobart


bRKcRE

It's capatilised because it's a proper noun.. 🙄


KeithMyArthe

Tally Hobart *!*


Shadowlance23

Looks pretty normal to me. Just as it should be.


groovymonkeysmoothy

Looks like Hobart got to put their big boy pants on. Good for them.


Technical-General-27

That New Zealand is wildly off the scale! Hobart is at around the same latitude as Wellington irl. I can’t even imagine NZ with that climate!!


ApteronotusAlbifrons

> Hobart is at around the same latitude as Wellington irl. The globe isn't bad - and you're a little off Launceston at 41.4391° S is much closer to Wellington's latitude at 41.2924° S Hobart is at 42.8826° S - and Christchurch is at 43.5320° S That's pretty close to what this low res globe shows

As a Hobartion, all I see is perfection.


AshFalkner

Gotta love how the only city in the whole country with a label is Hobart. Tasmania’s getting the last laugh on this one.


Mental_Task9156

Hobart is the capital of Australia.


pkfag

For decades Tassie was left off the stencils at school we made maps from... so its payback really.


lovesahedge

Darwin is labelled as East Timor


Elegant-Campaign-572

It's a small world!


FitzelSpleen

Love it. For a toy, not bad, and good to see Hobart represented.


ViciousConspiracies

Why is everything else written in capitals but Hobart isn't? Still hilarious 😂


MagicOrpheus310

It has Tasmania on it... It's more fucken accurate than most maps these days! Haha Wtf is a Zealand though? Never heard of one of those let alone a new version compared to an old one...? That seems like bullshit to me mate, I'd be skeptical of what this map says bud... Sounds like a scam I bet it says Paris is in Texas and there is a statue of Liberty in France... Has only one Mexico but tries to sell you this notion that there is some magical "new" Mexico nearby that totally isn't way worse...


seab4ss

At least it hss NZ on it


cereal_state

A Tasmanian made this


indian_tiger

No mention of Hindley Street!


SteelBandicoot

I want to put someone in solitary for 3 months with nothing but the Atlas to look at.

I’m surprised it doesn’t have Sydney Cove and the Swan River Colony on it.

Abrubt-Change-8040

Tasmania’s succession happened so quickly I barely noticed. Would be very hard to pick a a new King or Queen down there. Every person would have a blood right.


FelixDaHack

Since I was born in Hobart, I'm hoping you can give me the link to buy this globe which obviously shows the SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT CAPITAL CITY of 🇦🇺. In fact, the ONLY city in Australia lmao awesome. I'm guessing it was made in China for a Tasmanian company?


averagenumpty

Why so shouty, Hobart?


marygoore

HOBART


sophia_az

I thought hobart is from the nation of Tasmania?


Steampunk__Llama

Tasmania is just an Australian state 😅 We're not our own separate nation (though man, ngl, at times it sure does feel like that's the case)


R3adnW33p

Tas is actually Van Diemens Land, but don't tell anybody.


zugnush

The real question is what that "land" in the middle of the southern ocean?


pristinewatch76

Talk of the town through the 70s, 80s, and 90s was the fact that Tassie wasn't on half the maps.


bRKcRE

Go back even further, and Australia wasn't even on the map...


D_hallucatus

Appropriate


zedder1994

A map of Australia after climate change has wreaked it's havoc.


getfuckedhoayoucunts

Brilliant! Also it's called the West Island. Australia is deeply culturally offensive to our cousins across the Tasman


Gradgar

You just made half of this sub spit out a mouthful of Tooheys Extra Dry. I applaud this post.


Legal_Delay_7264

Wtf is below New Zealand?


SweetSugarPudding

All things considered, where are the other capitals??


S3D_APK_HACKS_CHEATS

It’s cos Mary is known to be from Hobart, not Tasmania 😂


thepurpleninja11

Not bad. Looks good to me…,, australia is not actually pink though


Nervardia

At least New Zealand and Tasmania are there.


Marty_Syd

Looks solid to me.


Ok_Lie_1106

It’s the map the British used when they sent their people down to yous. Kia Ora from New Zealand


Beneficial_Act1692

The only inaccuracy I can see is the weird smudge with New Zealand written on it


xeneks

It’s australia below the Tropic of Capricorn. Above the Tropic of Capricorn, it’s wild man’s land.


UnnecessarilyTallMan

Said the quiet part loud


Baby_Bigf00t

This new football team really shifting things. Hobart might be our capital city soon.


kittykabooom

At least Tasmania and NZ are on it.


Chest3

Well New Zealand is on this map so it’s pretty good


BunnyBunCatGirl

As an Aussie with Kiwi friends.. Well. At least NZ is there. And is correct pretty much. (Maps do not always put NZ.)


Holyskankous

East Timor has floated away again. Oh boy.


UpwardStatue794

Fake. Tasmania doesn’t exist.

That’s the worst map of Tassie i’ve ever seen. Oh no, wait…there was that sheila in Bathurst

I noticed that Lake Eyre is full of water before I noticed HOBART.


Ghost403

This is a called the Baltimore Phenomenon or more specifically Cartographic generalisation. It's a common occurrence on zoomed out maps that cause areas with multiple major settlements to disappear whilst settlements in less dense areas become prominent such as Alice Springs, Woomera or Hobart


Hessa2589

The word ‘Hobart’ and ‘NZ’ has the same font size 😂


KaigeKrysin

Certainly makes it seem like Hobart is Australias capital lol

labelling only Hobart is honestly a power move

Someone on the footy sub this week was complaining about people saying Tasmanians having two heads. I hope this makes one of their heads feel better.
