File talk:Europe mediterranean 1190.jpg

Latest comment: 15 years ago by Avellano

This map incorrectly states that there was a state of Lithuania in 1190, although it was founded in 1236. Also, Kurzeme (also Kurland or Courland) has not been in its territory until 1561 (to be precise, territory of Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth). Drawing Latgale and Southeast Estonia in the territory of Polotsk as well sa Yotving territories in the territory of Russia is also questionable since historical sources contradict upon this point. Naming Estonians as Chuds (historical Russian name of Estonians) is quite incorrect. --Avellano (talk) 09:49, 22 July 2008 (UTC)Reply
