Note:
|
The map was published in the book 'Großer Atlas der Außereuropäischen Erdtheile' by Henrich Berghaus. He was a German geographer and cartographer, trained as a surveyor, who carried on a geographical school at Potsdam. Berghaus's written works were numerous and important. This particular map retrieved from 'Atlas von Asia' depicts the Chinese Empire and Japan. The map covers a vast area to which is given extreme detail with quite a number of toponyms, location of mountains, river courses and cities. On the left bottom corner of the map there is an explanatory legend mostly about units of measurement.
