[edit]
The map is innacurate misinterpretation of information from historical sources. It is very misleading and without mention of Croatia (there was no Dalmatian Sklaviniae called "Dalmatia"). It is because is based on outdated and rejected minimalist viewpoint by Croatian historian Nada Klaić. Another issue with the map is distorted perception of space. The map is practically unusable for showing historical reality of the time. Miki Filigranski (talk) 22:10, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
