In this map we get a global view, as it was a pandemic that spread across all of the world. We see places where the spread was far more dense than other locations. For example we see that all of Europe had been affected at one point or another. We also see parts of Africa that are bare and most likely not affected or recorded. A major part of this map is to transmit the information and present a timeline of when these different locations got infected over the course of a calendar year. We see places get infected as early as September of 1889 like Tobolsk. We also see places get infected as late as October 1890 such as Korea. We also have locations that are marked as getting infected however it is unknown what month they had been transmitted the disease. Those locations are marked with purple diagonal lines. With viewing this map you truly get to see the scale of how bad and devastating this pandemic became. Although the numbers and dates in this map are estimated due to infections being spread by word of mouth so everything you see on this map may not be 100% accurate, it's the best we are going to get given the time period. We are also given a smaller map in the bottom right corner that shows all the locations infected no matter when they were infected. This does a really good job as the infection spots are all the same color opposed to the colors being associated with different months out of the year. It is a little easier to read. With the key being in the bottom right corner, this map does a fantastic job of showing why this was truly a global pandemic and how it ended up retaining that title so quickly due to the fast spread of the disease.
