Subject The topic of the resource Maps Russian Empire Telegraphs Communication Maps Description An account of the resource This map shows the telegraphic network present in the Russian Empire in 1895. Telegraph lines are shown in red, and telegraph stations are marked with red dots. Black lines indicate roads and other paths of postal travel such as steamship routes. This map is entirely focused on the territory of the Russian Empire and contains almost no information about areas on its border. As this map is not focused on travel infrastructure, it does not tell us a great deal about the physical spread of cholera. The information that can be gleaned from this map instead, is how information about cholera may have traveled across the Russian Empire. The map suggests a Russia that was more interconnected by communication than it had ever been before. This idea begs several questions. How did this dynamic change social structures? How did it change cultural narratives? How can we relate these ideas to major outbreaks of cholera and the social unrest that followed? A more focused line of questioning could concentrate on the role that class may have played in relation to this telecommunication network. Was access to information determined by social class? Was there an appreciable difference in the time it took for information to disseminate to people of different social and economic standings? This line of thinking might also lead us to think about the map in more specific spatial terms. Can we notice any discrepancies in how this telecommunication network is distributed? A followup idea to this could be comparing the economic or political contexts of areas found to have noticeably different telecommunication infrastructure. How might these potential differences have affected the outcomes of cholera outbreaks? A potential limitation of this map is that it offers us no information about the telecommunication infrastructure of territories bordering the Russian Empire. As the cholera epidemics we are investigating were global phenomena, having a better understanding of global telecommunications could prove relevant in contextualizing the case study of the effects in the Russian empire. Being able to compare relative development and advancement of telecommunication infrastructure could potentially help us to arrive at conclusions drawn from the outcomes of cholera epidemics in their respective regions. As it stands, this map is likely to be most effectively utilized in comparing and contrasting outcomes of locations contained within the Russian Empire.

Title A name given to the resource 1894 Transport Map of Russia - Map of the routes of Steamships, Communication lines, Railways, and Roads in the Russian Empire Language A language of the resource Russian Subject The topic of the resource Transportation and Communication Description An account of the resource 1894 Transportation map of Russia The map includes steamship and railway routes. It also highlights communication lines and roads in the Russian Empire in 1894. Focal points of the map are the Volga River and the numerous railways. The legend in the upper left corner of the map includes red lines as an indicator or railway lines, the solid red lines are for completed railroad lines, and the dashed red lines illustrate railway lines under construction. Blue lines are used to highlight steamship routes, and black lines indicate the roads. Green lines show the borders of the countries and towns. Mileage on the roads is highlighted at specific points on the map. It was published in St. Petersburg, Russia, during the reign of Czar Nicholas II. You can see the start of the Trans-Siberian railway from Moscow included on this map, and in an insert, it shows the railway from Chelyabinsk to Krasnoyarsk. General Staff officers Alexey Afinogenovich Ilyin and Vladimir Poltoratsky of Cartographic Establishment of A. Ilyin are listed as the publishers of this map. As these military officers had in-depth access to military archives, this map is considered to be one of the most precise records of transportation routes in Russia of that time period. Both Persia and Warsaw are included on this map. This is because both places were part of the Russian Empire during the construction of this map. Other inserts on the map include the Caspian Sea, Moscow, Rostov-on-Don, Moscow region, and the city, Warsaw, Vladivostok, and St. Petersburgh districts.

Title A name given to the resource Map of western Russia showing the Jewish Pale of Settlement Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Isidore Singer and Cyrus Adler Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived The Jewish Encyclopedia; a Descriptive Record of the History, Religion, Literature, and Customs of the Jewish People from the Earliest Times to the Present Day (1901) Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Funk & Wagnalls Company Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1901 Description An account of the resource The Russian Empire was a multinational state, and the Jews were a significant minority group in the empire. The Tsarist government imposed many restrictions on the Jews, including geographical confinement. Jews had to live in the Pale of Settlement, which was located in the western part of the Russian Empire.The Pale spanned across all of modern day Belarus, Lithuania, and Moldova, the vast majority of Ukraine and Latvia, much of modern day Poland, as well as the Western parts of modern day Russia. By 1885, there were more than 4 million Jews living in the Pale. Within the Pale, there were some towns (such as Kiev) where Jews could only live if they had special residence permits. Similarly, some Jews were allowed to live outside the Pale with special permission, although this was rare. Before you is a map of the Pale of Settlement from 1901. As you can see, The Pale covered a huge area that consisted of more than 20 gubernii or provinces. On this map, the province names are written in capital letters and the towns are in lower case. There are also some rivers noted on the map. The map legend details the percentages of Jews that lived in each of the provinces of the Pale. As noted, the Northwestern area had the highest percentage of Jews within the provinces. In areas such as Grodno and Minsk, more than 15% of the population was Jewish. This map is important due to the fact that it visually demonstrates the confinement and segregation of the Jews within the Russian Empire. Understanding the geographical restrictions of living in the Pale gives context to the history of the Jews in the Russian Empire. Visualizing the vast area of the Pale as well as the percentage of Jews in each town, demonstrates the size and significance of the Jewish population in Russia. The map conveys the demographics of the Jews and enables a broader understanding of their circumstances. The geographical picture obtained from this map, frames the conditions that influenced the massive migration of more than 2 million Jews from Russia.

Subject The topic of the resource Caucasus Maps Description An account of the resource Caucasus Region circa early 20th century The map selected is a 1918 British military map of the northern and southern Caucasus region. As a result, you will find that map contains names written in English script. Each province on the map is separated by borders in different colors. The primary focus of the region is Dagestan, Georgia and Armenia; all of which were identified as regions with the highest mortality rates as a result of cholera infections in the late 19th century. On the far right side of the map, outlined in yellow is the province of Dagestan. There, bordering the Caspian Sea and the Aspheron peninsula you will find the city of Baku which is largely known for its oil production. According to records in 1888, the total population of Baku is over 108,000. The city is also surrounded by smaller villages such as Baladjari, Sobunchi, Surkhani and Pufa. A checkered black line forms a semi-circle around the city represent a transit line. Small red lines on both the east and the west touching the rim of the coast represent roads that provide access to the city. The blue lines represent rivers of various lengths. Neighboring Dagestan and colored with a purple border is the province of Georgia. Within the center of the province is its largest city Tiflis with a population of 102,000 in 1892. Tiflis was amongst the earliest cities that reached high rates of cholera in the early 19th century. It rests centered between several blue, red and black lines that show an intersection of roads, rivers and trains. The red lines also connect to cities its east such as Manglis, and Kojori. On the west, cities such as Mukhraven, Gambori and Telay. Touching the southern border of Georgia is Armenia. On the far west of the province written in green is labeled “local control Kurds.” In the center and identified using a small black square with diagonal lines filled in the interior is the city of Kars. Black and redlines intersect it indicating that travel is accessible both by trains and by roads. The closest towns consist of Bagnimt, Aladjamt, and Bash Kadikylar. Several cities further east have numbers written underneath them indicating their local population. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Great Britain Army.

Title A name given to the resource Russian 1891 Famine Map Description An account of the resource This black and white map was referenced in an 1892 issue of “The Graphic” periodical, which was based in London, and showed us districts, cities, and regions affected by the Russian famine of 1891. The map key is quite simple and in a binary easy with shading tells us “least” and “most affected” areas on the map. The most notable additional feature on the map aside from the famine intensity are the rivers, waterways, and seas. However, this map still does its job with the reader immediately finding the famine-affected regions of the country. The map shows provinces with cities such as Voronezh, Tambov, and Uralsk were affected by famine, but not as significantly as areas such as Nijni Novgorod, Saratov, Simbirsk, Penza, and Tula. Some of the most severely impacted regions were also along the Ural River and the Volga river and can be observed from this map. But this map only gives us a snapshot into a particular moment in time with a focus on one thing - space and famine intensity. What if we want to layer this insight with other discernments into history? This famine occurred just before the1892 cholera epidemic, which also affected a large region across Russia. If we looked at the intensity of this epidemic across the same space, then what might we see? What if we considered the climate or agricultural emphasis of the region, then what might we observe? Combining these elements into one map could be significant because they better help us to understand the conditions that may have influenced cholera’s hold. Our ability to layer single-focus maps may give us insights into not only a particular time period but also into the spatial interactions between those moments in time, allowing us to glimpse, even if just for a moment, the more multi-dimensional history of Russia.
