'Europe, political'. Artist/engraver/cartographer: W & AK Johnston . Provenance: "The World Wide Atlas of Modern Geography Political and Physical"; Published by W. & A. K. Johnston, Edinburgh & Macmillan & Co Ltd. London. 10th Edition. Type: Colour vintage map. This fascinating map shows Europe in the immediate aftermath of the First World War, in the year that the Treaty of Versailles was signed. Many modern states which came into being after the First World War are shown in close to their modern shape and size for the first time. The areas subject to plebiscites are shown (in red hatched lines) in Carinthia, Upper Silesia & East Prussia. What became Yugoslovia is named as the "Serb-Croat-Slovene State". The effects of the Treaty Of Sevres, which marked the partition of the Ottoman empire, is reflected on the map. All of Thrace and the Zone of Smyrna is shown as Greek, while Armenia extends deep into what is now within present-day Turkey
