EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a detailed "Map of Mid. And South Africa, 1919" created by George Philip & Son Ltd. The map provides a fascinating glimpse into the European possessions in Africa at the outbreak of World War I in 1914. It was featured in Volume VIII of "The History of the Great European War: its causes and effects" by W. Stanley Macbean Knight, published by Caxton Publishing Company Limited in London. The map is richly colored, highlighting various countries and empires that held territories within Africa during this period. From British Empire colonies such as South Africa and Rhodesia to French Equatorial Africa and Portuguese holdings like Angola, it offers an insight into the vast imperial presence on the continent. Notably, German Empire's control over German South West Africa (present-day Namibia) can be observed alongside Abyssinia (Ethiopia), Sudan, Cameroon, Belgian Congo, and Italian territories. This visual representation underscores the extent of colonialism and imperialism prevalent during that era. With its historical significance and intricate details, this print serves as a valuable resource for researchers studying African history or anyone interested in exploring how political boundaries have evolved over time on the continent. Its preservation through Heritage Images ensures that future generations can appreciate this remarkable piece of cartographic artistry from early 20th-century Europe without commercial use implications mentioned explicitly by requesters.
