A very detailed German map of the continent filled with interesting features and early western territorial development in the United States. The large Oregon Territory extends into Canada to include Vancouver Island. Missouri Territory takes in most of the Plains region. Northwest Territory and Arkansas Territory are both shown. The map extends to include the Sandwich Islands, which is unusual for a map of this period.
