EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage map print depicts the Italian Empire in its entirety as it stood in 1939. The map showcases the extensive territorial reach of the Italian colonial empire, with a particular focus on the African continent. At the heart of the map lies the Italian Peninsula, bordered by the Mediterranean Sea. The empire's African territories, prominently displayed, include the colonies of Libya and Abyssinia (now known as Ethiopia). Italy's conquest of Libya began in 1911, and the region remained under Italian rule until 1943. The map illustrates the vast desert expanses of Libya, as well as its coastal cities and strategic ports. The Italian occupation of Abyssinia, however, was a more contentious affair. The Second Italo-Abyssinian War broke out in 1935, and the Italian forces, led by Benito Mussolini, were able to conquer the country in a relatively short time. The map reveals the mountainous terrain of Abyssinia, with its major rivers and cities. The Italian Empire's reach extended beyond Europe and Africa, with territories in the Balkans, the Mediterranean, and the Horn of Africa. This map serves as a poignant reminder of a time when European powers sought to expand their empires and exert their influence on the global stage. The intricate details and vibrant colors of the map transport us back to a bygone era, offering a fascinating glimpse into the history of Italy and its colonial past.
