Intereuropa disgraces itself with its lousy map.

One could perhaps forgive a foreign company for messing up a map of Slovenia. But what about a Slovenian one? Yes, my friends, it’s true. The ultimate disgrace in mapmaking is upon us. The Slovenian logistics company Intereuropa (one of the biggest companies in the country) boasts a map of Slovenia on its homepage that wrongly includes Croatian Istria and is missing the “chicken head” by Hungary.

To add insult to injury: some hackers managed to deface part of the site. I think it’s since been fixed, but previously clicking on “Slovenija” led you to some quasi-literate “Bush is teh sux, Turkey rulez!” page.

It’s a dark day in mix-up history.

(Thanks David!)
