Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

A globe is to show what the countries would look like from outer space and mostly focuses on the different countries. A map can focus on just the United States and show more detail about the states and terrain and cities. A Globe would have to be humongous in order to see all the things that you can see on a map on a globe.
