Description: A map showing the Density of Population of Eurasia as of 1898 AD. "By far the greater part of the people in all the thickly settled regions of Eurasia have reached some degree of civilization. It is only in the dense forests of the islands and mainland in the extreme southeast and along the bleak Artic shores that a few savage tribes are found. Most of the native tribes in the sparsely settled northern lowland are far advanced through the stage of barbarism." — Redway, 1898.
