Title	Cleartype general map of the World on Mercator's projection: featuring all political divisions, principal cities, and shortest steamship distances between ports
Creator	American Map Corporation
Date	1940
Subject	World maps World War II, 1939-1945

Description	This map provides a view of the world at a critical moment in history, as evident in time zones and air and shipping routes. According to the map, created in 1939, Poland had not yet been invaded by Germany. In Asia, the War began in 1931 with Japanese expansion into China. The map, for example, shows the transformed Chinese province of Manchuria as the puppet state of Manchukuo in the expanded Japanese Empire. Texas and the United States are nicely placed into a global context on the eve of the Second World War by this map.
