For its 19th season — wow, has it been that long? — MTV's "The Real World" is heading to Sydney, Australia. Having already invaded many exotic (Key West, Hawaii) and not-so-exotic (Denver) locales in the States, the show is going abroad for the third time in its history (London and Paris were first).

In my humble opinion, "The Real World" has been pretty worthless over the past few years and not exactly setting a noble example for America's youth.

The size of each country represents its land mass in proportion to that of the others.
The atlas depicts a whole assortment of topics — from tourist destinations, alcohol consumption, wealth in the year one versus wealth in 1990.
