Euratlas
Euratlas is a historical atlas project focused on providing detailed maps of Europe through various historical periods. The project's primary output is a series of historical maps available both online and in published formats.
The maps generated by Euratlas are designed to depict the political landscape of Europe at specific points in time, illustrating the evolving borders of kingdoms, empires, and smaller political entities. They typically include information about major cities, rivers, and other geographical features relevant to the historical context.
Euratlas utilizes historical sources and scholarly research to reconstruct the political and geographical divisions of Europe across different centuries. The project aims to offer a visual representation of European history, useful for researchers, students, and anyone interested in understanding the continent's past.
The timeframe covered by Euratlas maps generally spans from late antiquity to the early modern period. Specific dates, and the level of detail provided, vary depending on the historical era being depicted. The maps are regularly updated and refined as new historical information becomes available. The project is ongoing and continually expands its coverage.
