It is not so comfortable to use the globe when studying a continent or a country, since all objects are greatly reduced, and the globe itself is not always at hand and you cannot put it in your pocket. That is why there was a demand for an image of the Earth on a plane surface. In this case we use the maps.

A geographic map is an image of the Earth's surface, drawn at a scale and using conventional symbols.
