The map is a vectorised version of this map from Professor G. Droysens Allgemeiner Historischer Handatlas, which was published in 1886 by R[ichard] Andree.
I will at some point create an English version.
Changes from source image:
The small map in the top left corner (Die Welfenlande z. Zeit Heinrich d. Löwen – "Welf lands at the time of Henry the Lion") has not been included.
The legend in the bottom left corner has not been included since it is redundant with this description and/or image captions.
As such, both England and North Africa have been expanded into the areas which the map and legend cover.
The Balearic Islands were added; for some reason, Droysen's map omitted them.
Names of rivers have not (yet?) been included.
Locations of cities, fortresses etc have not been included.
Cöln has been changed to its modern spelling of Köln.
Some notes on territory changes have been added (Corfu, La Bresse),
Key:
Imperial and Hohenstaufen territory.
Ecclesiastical territories (Papal States, territory of the Teutonic Order, Prince-(Arch)bishoprics and abbeys).
Border of the Holy Roman Empire
Borders of the constituent kingdoms of the Holy Roman Empire (Kingdom of Germany, Burgundy/Arles, and Italy).
