So what is wrong with this picture?

 

Can you see it?



Could it be the strange size of Greenland and Africa?

Other has it, that Africa is 30 million km2 and Greenland is 2 million km2.
Like Wikipedia:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Africa

How did it come to look like that on google maps?

Africa shold have been 15 times larger than Greenland. It beats my eyes.
