Helen Clark reveals another map comparing New Zealand and Europe, internet becomes obsessed

Former Prime Minister Helen Clark has revealed another map comparing New Zealand and Europe, further staking the claim that our country isn't that small.

In a second Twitter post in as many days, Clark posted another map of Europe underneath a map of New Zealand.

"Turns out people have a great interest in maps! So how about this: New Zealand Official Yearbook 1919 showed NZ superimposed on map from #Italy. Goes to show there's nothing new under the sun as the old saying goes," she wrote.

Clark's recent posts have caused the internet to become obsessed with maps, one Twitter user suggested New Zealand should no longer introduce itself as "small and a long way away".

"Another way to think of it: NZ is equal to an upside-down Italy (without Sardinia)," another person wrote.

Kiwis love to hate it when New Zealand is left off a map, but maybe thanks to these recent revelations shared by Clark - we might be left off a little less often.
