Scarce and unusual German map of the United States including the newly acquired Louisiana Territory. Ohio is very strangely shaped and the name Indiana labels all of the region of North West Territory. West of Georgia is a large unnamed territory. Pennsylvania is labeled Bensilvanien. Louisiana Territory is filled in Indian tribes and little else.
