I really like this square world map which has very interesting properties, made by a small french non-profit for educational purposes: https://nuees.net/planisphere/

I don't think they have an english version of the site yet, but Youtube does an ok job at auto-translating the explaining https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=10rY7y5ys-g (it fucks up every other thing, but you get the overall meaning)

The first map on that page is a classic #mapswithoutnz. New Zealand (Aotearoa) IS in the full pdf version, though what did we do to get put in the naughty corner?

I think it's there in the top-left corner (though unmarked like quite a few places on there), but that "first" map is only a preview for the actual map. If you've watched the video, you know with a pair of scissors you don't have to stay in the corner, and could even pretty much be the center of the world! :)
