The last one looks like that super continent that existed millions of years ago. perhaps a full circle for floating Techtotic plates. but LOL, I like the US singles best.

I remember that there was a tv show where a guy took the concept of a "round world on a flat map" to a new level. Pretty much, his concept was to do it in the pattern of a peeled orange.
