About this record

Content

This map depicts two Anglo-Turkish boundaries in the Arabian Peninsula. The northernmost line represents the 'blue line', which was laid down in the non-ratified Anglo-Ottoman Convention of 1913 and redefined and adopted in the Anglo-Ottoman convention of the following year. The line that descends south-west from the blue line is the 'violet line', which was laid down in the Anglo-Ottoman convention of 1914.
