Summary

[edit]
Description
English: "Map of China and of the Tributary States", intended to accompany Marquis de Fortia d'Urban's 1840 Description of China and the States Tributary to the Emperor.

The dark line through the middle of eastern China is the Grand Canal and its continuation to Guangzhou. (Both marked Canal Impérial.)

The Yellow River is shown following its old course south of the Shandong Peninsula, before the massive floods of the 1850s altered its course north. More detail via zoom at Gallica link below.
