There's a Map That's Been Continuously Published Since 1570 - Apparently.
The Mercator Map, created by Flemish cartographer Gerardus Mercator, has been continuously published since its first edition in 1570. Despite being criticized for its inaccurate representation of the world, particularly in terms of size and shape, the map's popularity has endured. The map's projection, which inflates the size of landmasses near the poles, has been a subject of debate among geographers and cartographers for centuries, yet it remains a widely used and recognizable map to this day.
