Magnetic north is variable, and curved. It’s not even accross continents and changes over time. So the map is distorted so that up on the 2D plane of the drawing is magnetic north… Meaning all the countries and shapes are distorted so that magnetic north at those locations matches up in the drawing.
They’re drawn so that magnetic north is the top border of the image.
I think the red arrows are pointing out how shapes are being deformed, because the changes are relatively subtle.
