Can you spot the little error?

We've just started the Rugby Nations Championship. It consists of 12 teams, 6 from the Northern hemisphere and 6 from the southern hemisphere, as shown in the image.

But can you spot the little whoopsy?

[AI Opinion]

The little whoopsy is that there are not actually six *northern hemisphere* teams.

Argentina is listed among the “Northern” teams in that graphic, but Argentina is in the Southern Hemisphere 🌎

So the split shown (6 North, 6 South) is geographically incorrect because of Argentina’s placement.

And this is why you don't trust AI

Don't know if it's the wrong alignment, but I would consider Japan to be Northern Hemisphere. But as we see in other sports leagues division names don't always align with reality. For years New Orleans and Atlanta were in the NFL's western division of the NFC... so

Japan @purplepoppy !

It's usually bracketed with Southern Hemisphere rugby nations because of it's close links to NZ + Aus in time zones, trade + rugby -- but it is of course geographically in the Northern Hemisphere !!

I think Japan is not in southern hemisphere...

That Welsh logo shouldn't be included as they aren't a real place.

[Shiprex]

Japan is technically Northern Hemisphere
