The hidden map of America

The map of the US we're all familiar with is actually inaccurate – at least in the sense that it leaves out territories and other islands recognized by the US Geological Survey. With tropical rainforests, volcanoes, white sandy beaches, technicolor coral reefs and some of the nation’s oldest fortifications, these fascinating isles are worth getting to know, but aren't actually in North America.
