Ackchually, that is a map of density of the United Kingdom. Nowhere on this map does it show the density of maps found in the UK. :P

Well, map density is probably about the same as population density anyway.

It's not, though:

Pop. Density = Persons / km²

Map Density = Maps / km²

They get a little closer to each other if you count phone-based maps, but with the existence of physical maps, they will almost always be different.

Visibly different on a map this size?

If it was this zoomed out? I doubt it. I'm just sayin'. :P
