The Map Thread — Post Maps Here

[NixYO]

I have always been fascinated by maps. At home I got two world atlases and several tourist maps, and on an external drive I have an about 2.5 GB big folder filled with maps (on the computer I am sitting in front of right now I “only” have 865.1 MB worth of maps). In this thread we shall post maps we either come across on the Internet or got on our computers (or at home).

Some maps over Europe:




Map over Northern Ireland:



Maps over the Roman Empire and the Roman Republic:

I'm a lover of maps too. Here are a few. The first one is a map of the street where my great grandparents, who had immigrated only a few decades before purchased their first home, fulfilling their dream.

Well, I'm no expert but perhaps there's more. I'll move it to another thread so not to disrupt this one.

"The Changing Ethnic Patterns of the Carpatho-Pannonian Area" - As reconstructed by the researchers of the Hungarian Geographical Institute.

1495 - The situation before the Ottoman wars and conquest.

1784 - After the Ottoman period and the subsequent migratory events.

1910 - 10 years before the dissolution of the Kingdom of Hungary. Further changes took place due to internal migrations, urbanisation, assimilation and uneven population growth.

1960 - Ethnic structure of the Carpathian Basin following the World War II. It's not visible in the maps because they did not form a majority anywhere, but approximately 800.000 Jews from the CB fled or died in ghettos and concentration camps in the 1930's and 40's. Between 1945 and 1950 a similar number of Germans fled or had been expelled and deported to the West. At the same time in accordance with the Czechslovak-Hungarian population exchange 'agreement' nearly 90.000 Hungarians from present day Slovakia were relocated to Hungary, while around 60-70.000 Slovaks had to leave Hungary. As the borders changed after the World War I back in 1920, hundreds of thousands of Hungarians migrated from the neighboring countries to present day Hungary since then, while people of the new dominant ethnic groups came to their place often from remote regions of their countries (Serbs from as far as Montenegro settled to Vojvodina for example).

It's just the history of the last ~500 years, but some people are still talking about the continuity of the local population since the bronze age. Funny, isn't it?

Just made this one from FTDNA data.

In the FTDNA database, there is presently 45995 L51 samples that identify a country of origin and 5016 U152 samples that identify a country of origin.  So U152 makes up 10.9% of the L51 total.

This map shows where U152 is above and below the L51 average.  Bright red means U152 makes up 100% of the L51 samples and Green = 0%.

For reference England and Cuba are slightly above average (11.2% and 11.1% respectively)

Australia is above average at 16.7% while the US and Canada are below average (9.4% and 9.5% respectively)

I used to have a map like this hanging on my wall for 40 or so years. Unfortunately, I lost it. Courtesy of Hurricane Matthew. My Brother in Law gave it to me in 1970s. It’s nice to see a similar version again. The colors were a little more subdued in his.
