Is Google trying to redraw the world map?

Much has been made of the cool comic book that Google used to inform the world about Chrome. But something spotted by our German colleagues is perhaps much more sinister than Google merely trying to control the Internet. It looks like they’re redrawing the world map!
Seriously: Denmark (which they even mention in the frame in question), Switzerland, Austria, Hungary and Slovenia have either disappeared or had some of their territory… redistributed by the search giant. The question is: how long before Google apply these changes to Maps?
