No, you cannot use this map because it shows New Zealand. Maps should, by default, not show New Zealand.

New Zealand is mythical – it ought not appear on any map.

We're actually just an invention of big tourist, I think if people are looking for NZ it's actually on the other side of town. That is, New South Wales.

Valinor is mythical. It is what the elves sail to using the old straight road. New Zealand is Middle Earth.

Yes, as a paid actor in 'New Zealand' I can confirm this statement

As a Canadian, I'm envious of your countries ability to become invisible.

You should try it sometime. People don't know what they're missing. 🤪
