EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Map of East Africa during the First World War, created by John Bartholomew & Son around 1920. The map provides a fascinating glimpse into the colonial possessions of various nations in the region at that time. It highlights territories such as the Belgian Congo, British East Africa, German East Africa, Northern Rhodesia, and Portuguese East Africa. The vibrant colors used in this map bring to life the concept of imperialism and colonialism prevalent during this era. It serves as a visual representation of how European powers divided and controlled vast areas of land on the African continent. The inclusion of geographical features like Lake Tanganyika and Lake Victoria adds depth to this historical document. These bodies of water played significant roles in shaping military strategies during the German East African Campaign. Taken from "The Great World War - A History". Volume III edited by Frank A Mumby, published by The Gresham Publishing Company Ltd in London around 1920, this print is not just an ordinary map but also a valuable piece of history. It offers insights into political boundaries, imperial ambitions, and territorial disputes that defined East Africa during one of humanity's most devastating conflicts – World War I. With its rich details and historical significance, this print by John Bartholomew & Son is sure to captivate anyone interested in exploring the complex dynamics between European powers and African territories during early 20th century colonialism.
