  The British colonies in australia didn't federate until 1901, so reasonably they sould be shown as seperate, like Newfoundland and Canada —the preceding unsigned comment is by 24.59.97.219 (talk • contribs)

good point. Ive added them, (except for SA/NT as NT was part of South Australia then) --Astrokey44 15:01, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Italy didn't receive South Tyrol until the Treaty of Versailles.

It is Austria-Hungary but not Ukraine. 203.185.57.72 20:41, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Philippines

The Philippines were ceded by Spain to the United States in 1898. Shouldn't this map reflect that fact? Nerevarine of Vvardenfell (talk) 04:13, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

africa map

several problems with africa map. the depiction of german kameroon is the way it was in 1914, not 1898, for example. Italian somaliland was also smaller. — Preceding unsigned comment was added by 64.202.87.52 (talk) 18:52, 25 January 2017 (UTC)

Vancouver Island

Why is Vancouver Island shown as part of the US? It was never US and joined Canada in 1871. Cashewnøtt (留言) 12:13, 18 January 2018 (UTC)

I noticed this as well and I think it’s worth fixing. The English Wikipedia page for the 1846 Oregon Treaty explicitly addresses the issue of Vancouver Island (as does the text of the treaty). — Preceding unsigned comment was added by 2601:646:C001:B040:A8B4:5108:1904:15D7 (talk) 07:21, 24 March 2018 (UTC)

China

Why does China have its own color? It implies that China was a colonial power, which couldn't be further from the truth. While China still had own territory, it was heavily colonized by the Eight-Nation Alliance through preposterous treaties. --147.142.158.250 11:24, 18 October 2018 (UTC)

East Timor

Why is w:East Timor shown as part of the w:Kingdom of the Netherlands? East Timor was part of the Portuguese colonial empire from 1769 to 1975.
