I was confused as well and I found this coloured version and this version with sea connections (green for Panama and Suez canal) that helped me to understand!

Thank you.

Still kinda a weird how they have it laid out. Granted I'm no cartographer, I don't know the struggles of projecting a sphere on a plane.
