Reply to There really isn't any reason why north is always upward and south is always downward on maps. by GuinnessTheBestBoi
It is because of magnetism, a special star the northern hemisphere only has, and standardization.

It is much easier to compare maps and correctly identify features on maps when they are always in the same orientation.

I'm not sure why that would matter. If we can imagine ourselves in the animal's position, and recognize we wouldn't want this done to us, what is it that makes it ok to do it to them?

Almost like the story is about humans just dressed up as animals for the sake of flavour (pun intended)

European maps originally had east at the top because that is where the sun rises. That was their "orientation." The silk road brought with it the magnetic compass. After that, it began to make more sense to have north at the top of the map. Source: The history of the English language podcast.

Someone a long time ago probably made the first map and set the foundation for the rest of the maps to be up or down

Ohh..bud..there is..its because North can be clearly distinguished from the other poles thanks to the magnetic field of the Earth..which makes it a constant..so building a map with the North..a constant..which can also be a stand in for the North Star..which most of Europe sailors used was just logical for them.. in other parts like India East was the top..and I think in Egypt South was the top..but somewhere during the European expansion..(colonialism) ..all the maps have been set to suit them..thus the standard North top maps were made..
