      Must’ve been right before or during WWII. I’ve never seen a globe with Austria and Czechia as part of Germany.

      I like how they chose to include Kapuskasing for Ontario but omitted Toronto.

      I estimate this globe to be from around mid-1939 based on Germany’s occupation of Bohemia and Moravia (March ’39).

      This is one of many old-timey/retro/throwback maps and globes where the company making the product basically makes it up as they go along. Saying “it’s anachronistic” is an understatement.

      Here’s another example (my parents had this map hanging up in their home office for a while and it really bothered me): [https://stocklistgoods.com/products/vintageschoolchartworldmap](https://stocklistgoods.com/products/vintageschoolchartworldmap)

      Some of these “anachronistic on steroids” maps can even be considered racist when it comes to the presentation of Europe and parts of the world European nations colonized. But sorry for venting my frustrations and ruining the mood. I know we’re discussing a cheap stuffed tchotchke here.

      Interesting that they didn’t include Taiwan as part of the Japanese Empire. 

      And the seam through Germany was kinda prophetic I guess.

      I’m bad at geography so I was wondering if I could spot the discrepancy. Oh no that Germany 😂

      I wonder if they used an old map because of copyright? They probably found something in the public domain and slapped it on there.

      Pre-1947- India, Pakistan and Bangladesh all seem to be one country

      Why is Taiwan part of China on this globe? Judging from Central European boarders it’s like mid-39. Formosa was part of Japan at that time.

      I would be so stoked to find a stuffed globe with Jugoslavia on it 😅

      I can’t believe it shows Cross Lake in Manitoba on that globe…
