Attractive and detailed map of North America. Mexico is in control of the southwest (Texas is not named), and the boundary with Canada extends well into present-day Canada, reflecting the United States claims to the territory. The Midwest, east of the Rocky Mountains, is identified as Missouri Territory while Wisconsin is labeled Northwest Territory. At left is an inset of the Aleutian Islands.
