Content

A map, marked secret, showing the proposed division of Asia Minor into spheres of influence and protection by the European powers of Great Britain, France, Italy, and Russia. The division is based on agreements reached in 1916 and the end of the First World War. The map shows details of topography, major settlements, and political boundaries. Over this are various blocks of colour shading that correspond to the different European, Russian, and international spheres of influence referred to in the 1916 agreements. These colours relate to a key at the bottom of the sheet.

The map has the printing statement 'London: Edward Stanford, 12, 13, & 14 Long Acre, W. C.'
