Map Journal Entry #7

http://strangemaps.files.wordpress.com/2006/12/10.jpg




          This propaganda map is also in the time of the Nazis. According to the one who recovered this map, this is created by the British between the years 1937 and 1940. The purpose of this map is to reveal what the British think of the Nazis aims. According to them, the Nazis are declaring war to grab lands from other countries.

          Again, this map is lacking in elements since it is a propaganda map. But just like other propaganda maps, there are additional contents like for example, in this map, there is a mini article on the lower right hand side which has the label “Evidences”. I think this discusses the message that this map is trying to convey, and I think that this is to support the purpose of convincing the people to the belief of the mapmaker.
