Africa Historical Political Wall Maps


Historic Africa map
Africa Map 1909. National Geographic Society. This map is a reprint of the NGS Africa map published in 1909. This historic map of Africa takes you back to 1909, a time when the "Dark Continent" was barely known in the outside world. A time when the only way to get to far off places like Abyssinia, the Congo State, and Bechuanaland Protectorate was to take a long sea voyage, then travel many miles by rail. National Geographic was among the first to bring this amazing land to the world, and this incredible map provides a time capsule into these times. Artistic cartography and painstaking detail make this a map for any collector.
The 1909 Africa map features:

  • Country boundaries that show Independent Territories and Congo State, along with territories under control of Egypt, England, Germany, Spain, Italy, Turkey, France, and Portugal.
  • Railroads in operation and those that were proposed
  • Steamship lines, caravan routes, cable lines, telegraph lines
  • Gold fields, silver fields, and diamond fields
  • Ocean liner routes leading to African destinations from other parts of the world
  • Principal products of each country or region are highlighted on the map
  • Contour elevation lines in 500 foot increments
  • Coverage Area: Africa, Arabian Peninsula, Spain, Italy, Turkey and the Turkish Empire

    Metallogenic Map of Africa. 1:5,000,000. CGMW, France, 2006. This is a 4-sheet series that complements the Geologic Map of Africa (66-1401) above. A major objective has been achieved with the publication of the International Metallogenic Map of Africa, produced by the Council for Geoscience, South Africa, under the auspices of the CGMW. The map supersedes an earlier version of the International Mineral Deposit Map of Africa (Sheet 1), produced in 1991. The geological background is based on the International Geological Map of Africa, 1:5 000 000, 1985-1990, up-dated where applicable. Mineral deposit data (location, name of the more important deposits, commodities present, status, shape or type of deposit, orientation, and size) are portrayed against a background depicting the chronostratigraphic succession of sedimentary and volcanic sequences and intrusive magmatic bodies, the geotectonic setting of orogenic domains, or genetic host rock environment, and distinguishing the lithology of magmatic and metamorphic rocks. Mineral deposits are numbered and referenced according to a 5° latitude x 5° longitude grid. 218 x 171 cm.
