Cuba's Shape and Orientation
■■■■■
This effect centers on a collective memory of Cuba being a much longer, thinner, and more horizontally oriented island than it appears on current maps.
●
What People Remember
People often remember Cuba as a very elongated, thin strip of land primarily stretched in an east-west direction.
◉
What's Actually True
Cuba is a large, irregularly shaped island that has a somewhat curved, slightly north-south orientation in parts, and is not as uniformly thin as remembered.
