一位保加利亞藝術(shù)家制作的一系列另類歐洲地圖近來在網(wǎng)絡(luò)上受到熱捧。在這些地圖中，每個(gè)國家和地區(qū)的名字都用別國國民對(duì)其固有的印象來標(biāo)注，例如，在名為“美國眼中的歐洲”的地圖上，法國被標(biāo)注為“氣味難聞的人們”，德國被標(biāo)為“下流的色情”，而英國則被標(biāo)為“木乃伊”。該系列其它的作品包括“英國眼中的歐洲”、“法國眼中的歐洲”、“德國眼中的歐洲”、“意大利眼中的歐洲“以及”保加利亞眼中的歐洲”等。這位藝術(shù)家表示最初有靈感想要?jiǎng)?chuàng)作這樣的另類地圖是在2009年烏克蘭和俄羅斯發(fā)生天然氣爭(zhēng)端的時(shí)候，最初只是跟朋友逗樂，后來放到個(gè)人網(wǎng)站受到人們歡迎，才決定要認(rèn)真做該系列地圖。他制作的第一幅地圖名為“我生活的地方”，在圖中，俄羅斯被標(biāo)注為“偏執(zhí)的石油帝國”，而烏克蘭則被稱為“盜油者”。

Europe According to USA |
A series of maps of Europe labeled according to national stereotypes has become an internet sensation with half a billion hits.
Yanko Tsvetkov, a Bulgarian designer and illustrator living in London, has produced seven maps in which countries and regions are labeled according to the stereotypes of their inhabitants held by the people of other nationalities.
In a map titled Europe According to USA, Russia is blocked out in red and labeled "Commies" while France reads "Smelly People" and Germany reads "dirty porn". Britain is simply labeled: "Mummy".
In the map of Europe according to Britain, the mainland is labeled "Evil Federated Empire of Europe" while Ireland reads "Rascals" and Turkey is labeled "No Pork Meals Here".
Mr Tsvetkov, 33, said he was inspired to create the first map in the series during the gas row between Ukraine and Russia in 2009.
In the first map, titled Where I Live, Russia is labeled "Paranoid Oil Empire", while Ukraine is labeled "Gas Stealers".
The graphic designer said: "I created the first one in 2009 because at that time there was an energy crisis in Europe. I just created it to amuse my friends but when I put it up on my website so many people liked it that I decided to really focus on the project of mapping the stereotypes based on different places in Europe. I was surprised by the reaction because I never really expected it to take off like this."
Mr Tsvetkov's website has been inundated with around half a billion visitors since he published the series, called Mapping Stereotypes.
As well as maps of Europe according to the US and Britain, the continent is shown as seen by France, Germany, Italy and Bulgaria.
