An uncommon small map of the young nation with boundaries along the Mississippi River. The map extends from Main down to Georgia and west to include the expansive new Louisiana Territory. Georgia's western boundary is the Mississippi, and the large, unnamed Northwestern Territory contains the lands that would become Illinois, Michigan, Indiana, and Wisconsin. The map also includes an unnamed area in present-day West Virginia that is likely in reference to the Indiana Land Company's claim in this region.
