This uncommon map shows interesting and sometimes outdated state and territory boundaries. Indiana is still labeled as a territory even though it had become a state in 1818. The newest state of Missouri is also shown, and Arkansas is shown as a state although it did not achieve statehood until 1836. The remaining region to the west is labeled as "Western Territory" and the area of present-day Texas is still "Mexico." Michigan Territory and North West Territory are shown in the north, and numerous Native American Indian tribes are noted throughout. Mississippi appears to be mis-colored (as it is on other examples as well) to include the western portion of Tennessee. The Florida peninsula is shown in an inset at right.
