Map ofAfrica - Frederick Herman Moll  (London, 1710)

One of the most decorative Maps of Africa after 1700.

This is a map of Africa in 1710 before and whilst Europe was in the process of dismembering African states and reshaping them into the  majority of Artificial states we now know as African Countries.

Notice:

• Africans defined their land by their own standards, governed and dictated by themselves for THEIR own development.
• Europeans did not know that much about Africa (Shame on them).
