The Polish Lithuanian Commonwealth and its subdivisions at prominent moments in its history. At its largest extent in 1619, after its first territorial losses in the 17th century, after the First Partition and after the Second Partition before its formal dissolution in 1795.

In a series of a few maps I’ll make of the Polish Lithuanian-Commonwealth this one is of the local administrative regions or Voivodeships/Województwa, a second tier system of regional government below the largely ceremonial Provinces/Prowincja. This is the administrative situation at the Commonwealths zenith circa 1619.

Dominant Religions in Europe

This map shows the dominant religion in each subdivision of each Western European country. Some things to note! the term ‘Western Europe’ is rather ambiguous so this is my definition of it which includes the following countries; Iceland, the UK, Ireland, the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, France, Spain, Andorra and Portugal. The following entities are also included separately; the Isle of Man (Crown dependency of the UK), Jersey and Guernsey (Crown dependencies of the UK), the Faeroes (autonomous constitute country of the Danish Realm). Monaco doesn’t show up on the map and so I have included its statistics within the France Region of Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur.

Dominant Religions in Europe

This map shows the dominant religion in each subdivision of each Northern European country. Some things to note! the ‘Regions of Europe’ are rather ambiguous (as with the last one) so this is my definition of Northern Europe which includes the following countries; Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Russia (in part). The following Russian entities included are; the Oblasts of Murmansk, Leningrad and Kaliningrad, the Republic of Karelia and the Federal City of St. Petersburg.

I know I said I’d do Germanic next but it’s a big one so in the meantime here is a language map/tree of the Insular Celtic language group! Just to save the confusion we had with the last one I don’t include extinct languages ~ thanks for the request!

Made this a while ago - the island groups of Norðreyjar/the Northern Isles with native Norn names! I'm aware the Norn names do differ and are open to interpretation but these are the names I was made aware of when I was taught Norn.

Yeh so I'll do Germanic language group next for the next language map/tree as its been suggested a few time now and I had actually already started it a while back!

Glasgow bubble Map

My first attempt at a city bubble map. I couldn’t find a process to follow so like most of my maps I totally winged it but it came out good for a first attempt. The larger bubbles are wards of the City of Glasgow which are placed in relation to each geographically. Thanks for the suggestion!

Well where each language is placed on the end branch doesn't denote anything like its relation to the language it's next to in said group (I.e. the fact Iv put Ingrian and Vod next to each other in the Baltic group is simply for presentation purposes as the words fit there better, not because I'm saying they're the closest to each other in that group) and as for Mator and Kamass, I didn't include extinct languages in this one!

Language Maps!

So Iv decided to do something a little different, not so much cartographic this time - rather a language map (presented in the form of a tree). This one Iv made is of the Uralic language family!

There's plenty maps out there but I fancied one for my blog! This map shows the share of the remain vote in Scotland's 32 local council areas. Some quick stats: Scotland voted 62% in favour of renaming in the EU, this is considerably higher than all but one official opinion poll suggested. Turnout was 67.2%. This is ranked 3rd in turnout in the UK behind England (73%) and Wales (71.7%) and above Northern Ireland (62.9%) but is within the expected turnout margin which was between 65%-70%. The highest remain vote was cast in Edinburgh with 74.4% of the voting electorate supporting continued EU membership and was (rather unexpectedly) followed closely by East Renfrewshire with 74.3% in favour of remain. The lowest remain vote was cast in Moray with 50.1% of the voting electorate supporting continued EU membership (Moray was the only council area predicted in the last official poll to vote leave by a small margin). It was followed by Dumfries and Galloway which voted 53.1% to remain.
