‘Great map.

Few things I noticed - Dutch Timor is mentioned as Portuguese Timor’s western neighbour, not Indonesia.

The modern German flag, rather than the flag of the German Empire, is used to represent Great War battles between the two countries in Africa.

The Chinese islands to the west of Taipa and Coloane have Portuguese names, that I wasn’t previously aware of.

Interesting stuff!’
