Question

Not a single map projection represents the globe truly. Why?

Answer 1

However, there is no such projection, which maintains the scale correctly throughout. It can be maintained correctly only along some selected parallels and meridians as per the requirement. Projection is a shadow of globe which has to be presented on a map. When shape of globe changes certainly inaccuracy comes in. Therefore, it is rightly said that not a single map projection represents the globe truly.
