I can’t believe this map includes Castile, but does not make any mention of Al-Andalus. That’s one of the most interesting epochs of Iberian history!
This is arbitrary horseshit.
I’d say arbitrary but still interesting to think about. You could take 1,000 slices in time and get lost in the data, but it’s interesting just to look at a few I don’t think it claims to be EVERY country that no longer exists
Maybe this is a beginning of someone’s mapping journey, so I wouldn’t be too harsh on it. If you’re interested in how the borders have changed throughout the history, you could also watch this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-6Wu0Q7x5D0
When I was a kid, Yugoslavia was a country.
Someone forgot the soviet union was a country
TBF if you’re going to include all the countries that no longer exist on this map, it’d be unreadable.
Off the top of my head (and in no particular order): all the small states in the Holy Roman Empire, the Holy Roman Empire, the Roman Empire, the Western Roman Empire, Dacia, Poland-Lithuania, Scotland, England, the Kingdom of Ireland, Wales, Burgundy, Al-Andalus, Czechoslovakia, the DDR, Yugoslavia, Byzantium, the Ottoman Empire, Austro-Hungaria, the Irish Kingdoms, etc.
I mean, what were the middle parts of Italy and Germany before? Wouldn’t those technically be countries that don’t exist anymore as well?
Holy Christ on the bloody cross
I think I get it now 😂
