Geography is a subject that becomes a headache for many. Even the most basic notions such as locating countries in some continents, rivers in autonomous communities or something simpler: locating the regions of the country itself in their place -even if it is approximate- on the map.
A few days ago, Antena 3 published an article worthy of a tragicomedy highlighting the beauty and uniqueness of the Gran Canaria municipality of Agaete without hitting islands or capitals.
Telecinco also returned to its classics and placed Maspalomas beach in Tenerife. A whole classic. The Mediaset chain made another mistake with Los Llanos de Aridane. In information that echoed the controversy that arose at her Carnival Queen gala, she placed the municipality of La Palma in Gran Canaria.
“The Carnival of the Llanos de Aridane, in Gran Canaria”, declared Frank White in his program to give way to a video that, on the contrary, affirmed that the palm municipality was in Tenerife.
In addition, the presenter greets the mayor palmero of “Los Llanos de Aridane” when it really is that of San Andrés y Sauces. Fortunately, the highest leader of the town clarified the geographical failure caused by the chain in just 60 seconds.
“If you allow me a clarification, I am the mayor of San Andrés y Sauces and we are on the island of La Palma, neither in Tenerife nor in Gran Canaria”he explained.
