  1. No….. that’s the Eurocentric view. You realize there were many many other people and societies on the continent, correct?

  2. The Russians selling Alaska is just the topkek of the millennium. (I know it was just a frozen wasteland at the time, but hey, isn’t 90% of Russia a frozen wasteland anyway?)

  3. Wrong, Patagonia was never under spanish control. It was indigenous peoples at the time of the map.

  4. This map is dog shit; inconsistent naming, no Cape Breton colony, erroneous Spanish Patagonia.

    If this is porn it’s the kinda porn recorded vertically in one take

    Oh yeah and it conflates the Hudson’s Bay Company with Prince Rupert’s Land

  5. these maps always wants to erase new france, even tho northwest has french names and US purchased louisiana from france
