China in 1940



A
map of China in 1940.

It is a scanned file, from the "Atlas Mira"(The world map), publishing house "Leningrad", 1940. This atlas is belonged to Peter's father. Now it is lying somewhere in my apartment in Moscow.

I did not see from this card independent Tibet, nor independent Ugur. So we could easily conclude that they had been parts of China 70 years ago.

Have a closer look.
