    If Norway is colored in for being in a union with Denmark why aren’t Iceland and Greenland colored in? They were in that union too.

  2. I don’t think this tells us anything. At that time, most countries today either didn’t exist in their current form, or were part of an empire or colony.

    You should probably paint Greenland too, it was a danish territory at the time and its a danish territory today.

    Also, French Guyane.

    Yeah, but should show just the 13 colonies not the entirety of the modern US.

  5. That’s some stupid map. The recognition of the US as a country was tiny when for example france paid for their revolutionary war.

  6. I would have used a map of current borders for 1783 or some near date as this was what the world looked like on 1783. I mean, the United States that was recognized and the recoginizer states or nations war different from what they are now.

    I don’t make maps, but I believe that retrieving map templates online gor any given date is not such a pain, not 1650 onwards, at least.
