- Notes:
- This map was included in a book published by the writers of "Spitting Image," a long-running satirical British television program. At the time of publication, 1985, memories of the 1982 Falklands War were still fresh, and the map attacks the Conservative government under Prime Minister Thatcher. The map is a riot of politically incorrectness, from "Greasy Gaucho Spic Land" (Brazil) to "Filthy Shoplifting Arabville" (North Africa) and "Slanty Eyed Chinky Take Away Land" (China).
