Note:
This map of the Chinese Empire is drawn largely from the Blaeu map compiled by Jesuit Father Martino Martini who traveled through the region between 1643 and 1650. However other important early sources are also mentioned as Tavernier, Johann Grueber and Bento de Góis. Individual provinces, towns, and the Great Wall are depicted. Korea is shown as a long, narrow peninsula with only a few place names which denotes the lack of knowledge of the country at the time. Japan is beginning to take shape, although Hokkaido is still connected to Tartary, labeled 'Tartari di Yupy' and completely blank. The Dutch settlement of New Zealand is shown in Taiwan named as 'Loqueio ò Formosa I.' The map extends south to include the northern part of the Philippine Island of Luzon and the city of Manila. Macao is marked but not Hong Kong denoting the early importance of the former but not the latter.
