Europe redrawn after Napoleon, and Africa carved up between 1884 and 1910, are shown in the maps from Europe Since 1815, Charles Downer Hazen’s history published in New York by Henry Holt and Company. The book follows European politics and the growth of colonial empires up to the eve of the First World War, and its maps compare the settlement of 1815 with the later states of Germany, Italy, Austria-Hungary and the Balkans. Overseas sheets cover Africa and Asia, colonial possessions at different dates and the Russo-Japanese War, and an ethnographic map groups the peoples of Austria-Hungary under the book’s historical racial headings. Editions of around 1910 and 1914 include different contemporary political maps.
