Description: A map showing Europe as of 1898 AD. "Europe is composed of twenty or more independent states or countries, in nearly every one of which the people differ from those of others in language, customs, and standards of living...In Europe [there are] two important republics, France and Switzerland. All other large countries are monarchies...All the great industries are actively pursued in Europe, but by far the largest part of the working population is engaged in agriculture, manufacturing, and commerce." — Redway, 1898.
