Propaganda mapping is creating a false map in order to display specific ideas. It is very similar to propaganda but through the mean of mapping. Here, as the title says it, it is a map of Europe seen from Russia. From this angle, western Europe seems very week next to Russia. It looks vulnerable, like a dead end without an exit from the Russian power. Russia is doing propaganda through the use of mapping here, they are displaying the idea that they are the strongest power of Europe.
