The factual accuracy of this map or the file name is disputed.
Reason: This map claims to depict various continental boundaries used up to the 1920s; however, even a quick search of this website reveals this isn’t accurate, especially with regard to the Caucasus. For example, here’s an Austrian map from 1892 published by Meyers Konversations-Lexikon, which includes the entire Caucasus in Europe. Also, this British physical map of Europe from the turn of the century goes even further. Also this Russian map from 1874 at the British Library. There’s clearly ample precedent of various lines drawn through the Caucasus. It seems arbitrary that this particular map excludes them but includes others and doesn't explain reasoning, which is misleading |

Historical conventions for the boundary between Europe and Asia, from maps published between 1700 and 1920 (note that maps from before the late 16th century cannot show a clear delineation for the northern part of the boundary, as the Arctic Ocean (Nova Zemlya, Sea of Kara etc.) was not known to cartographers).
