The meme is a humorous illustration of a 17th-century map of Africa, with a cartoonish image of a monkey in the center of the continent. The image is captioned "Africa, according to European maps of the 17th century". The map is a classic example of Eurocentric cartography, where the continent is distorted and exaggerated, with the monkey's face and body replacing the traditional depiction of Africa.
