Votes:0 Citation Information This atlas was originally printed and copy written in 1895 by the Rand McNally Corporation, called: "The New 11 x 14 Atlas of the World" Although it contained maps of the countries of the world and the individual states of the United States at that time, it only contained an index for the United States. I have begun to scan the world maps which will eventually be placed as a link on the atlas. There are no indexes for the towns in the world portion, but perhaps the maps will help people. I would ask also that you please remember that ALL of the maps on any of my sites are covered under my COPYRIGHT. I have spent thousands of hours enhancing, cleaning up etc. to make them easier for you to use. Please have the courtesy the request use of the maps before arbitr Read More Go to Site

Votes:0 The Roman Empire at its Greatest Extent Clicking anywhere on this map will give you a more detailed look
at that portion of the Roman Empire; as a guideline, the map above is
divided into nine relatively equal
segments which overlap
somewhat in case you click near the border of a portion. The detailed
maps will allow you to select segments for even greater detail. The
detailed maps at both levels vary somewhat in size, depending on the
complexity of the images displayed; the average is about 50K- 60K,
but the range is 24K - 103K. With reasonably fast connections, most
images should appear completely in less than a minute. A larger version of the map above (148K
