The most brilliant math joke hiding in plain sight! This shows France's map as a mathematical revolution around the z-axis—literally a "French Revolution." The country is rotating in 3D coordinate space, with the blue representing the post-revolution orientation. Mathematicians and historians collectively shedding tears of joy at this perfect pun. Next time someone asks what polar coordinates are good for, just point to this masterpiece of computational humor. Marie Antoinette might have lost her head, but this graph is losing its axis!
