A globe is a spherical model of Earth, of some other celestial body, or of the celestial sphere.
Globes serve purposes similar to some maps, but unlike maps, do not distort the surface that they portray except to scale it down.
A model globe of Earth is called a terrestrial globe.
CONTINENTS AND OCEANS
This document discusses maps and globes. It explains that maps show areas of land and water like continents and oceans. Maps can depict large or small areas, and use symbols, keys, scales and compass roses to help orient and interpret locations. Globes also show the Earth's land and water bodies, but depict the planet as a sphere. The document then gives Spain as an example, noting its location in Europe on the Iberian Peninsula with borders to Portugal, France and Morocco, and surrounded by seas.
The representation of the earth
The document discusses different ways of representing the Earth, including globes, maps, and coordinate systems. It explains that globes accurately portray the spherical shape of the Earth, while maps are flat representations that provide more detailed information. It also describes how latitude and longitude are used to precisely locate places on maps using lines of meridians and parallels that divide the Earth into hemispheres and time zones.
