There’s a political map of the world in 1920 here
Thanks so much jellies. I settled on working with an artist on Fiverr to help me out with graphic that I need for a family album.
Sounds like a fun project!
^^Yes. Helping out a friend make a family album ( 1900–1933 ) using Amazon Photos. I’m on page 145 and my friend wanted a map showing the route his parents took to get to the US from Europe.
For more interesting maps try Cadastral Maps.
Here is a link to Cadastral maps of Ukraine, Poland, Austria since over time periods those boundaries changed hands several times with Germany ,Russia, Austria, Gallica Empire and so on.
I am currently researching my late in law side of the family (Matriarch line who lived in Austria/Poland/Ukraine/Gallica/Czech Republic as boundaries changed often)

I have been researching through these Cadastral maps internationally as well as locally as these types of maps were universal in every locality.
I even obtained Cadastral maps of an old neighborhood that I had grown up on, and it
showed the exact homes that I lived in.
( maps but also aerial images can also be found since the year
1912 every country had these done.)
I got an image zoomed in to show exact house as it was in that exact time period of one home that I grew up in as a child .
We moved approximately every three years and I have lived in 17 homes as a child…due to the economic climate .
