Pretty neat.
One tip it took me a while to realize is that after you tap on a country, the compass rose (now the same color as the country) can be used to rotate it.
But why do countries rotate to the left as you drag them north and rotate to the right as you drag them south?

We need a new world map that accurately portrays countries by size. The downstream effects would go crazy.

There's already several, Gall Peters being the most (in)famous. Other than accurately showing size, such maps are pretty useless. Mercator is actually useful for navigation because it maintains angles, all "size accurate" projections have to sacrifice that.

No wonder china is investing so heavily into Africa, including having Chinese settle there.
