That is one lazy fucking map considering the Romans knew damn well where to place the Hadrian and Antonine walls by determining the thinnest part of Britain with accuracy.

But you gotta be fucking kidding me about southern Italy though. That there has simply NO excuse to fuck up, while getting southern Greece somewhat correct.

got any larger scale historical maps? i fucking love looking at how all the historical empires were laid out and interacted and shit
>>
>>1289662
I would say that this map is a nice representation of interaction between different groups of people. No empires in this one, though.

This Burgundy was actually a vassal of France. Blame feudalism for borders like this all over Europe.

You can only be vassal of a person, not of a country.
So the Duke of Burgundy wasn't a vassal of France. He was a vassal of the King of France. But only for his western possessions (Flanders & Burgundy).
For his eastern possessions (Holland, Brabant, Luxembourg, Franche Comté) he was a vassal of the Holy Roman Emperor.

Alright, you've got a point.

Thanks for the clarification on the division of the Duchy. I asn't aware of that. I didn't know that.
I suppose that's what the red border in this map represents, then.

Martin Waldseemüller and Matthias Ringmann who made this map also came up with and established the name America for the New World.

I'm tempted to point out that they explicitly named it America, not the Americas.
