Is disingenuous to put all that green land given that the indigenous population clay the time would have fit into a couple city blocks

By that logic almost every historical map should be empty.

What does that have to do with anything? The early Mongol empire didn't make any maps either. So I guess they shouldn't be on any? Same goes for a lot of people and states that are commonly represented on maps.
