Map depicts European history of nations with their ruling dynasties and their chronological sequences. Includes numerous historical notes and chronological tables. Date estimated. "An unusual historical map of Europe represents the history, the rulers and the connections between the royalties of different countries. The map was issued as a sequel to the book Geo-Chronologie von Europa, oder kurzer Inbegriff der Geographie und Geschichte der Kaiserthümer,..., over a decade after the book’s publication and was, according to the contemporary advertisements, sold separately. It is based on the map by J. M. Wauthier, which was originally published in French language an in 1805 in Englich (Geochronology of Europe). The engraver was a Munich-based map maker Johann Baptist Seitz (1786 - 1850). This is the first edition. The second, revised edition with an additional imprint was according to the contemporary literature printed later in the same year." (Alexander Johnson)
