Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Map of Persia. Compiled in the Intelligence Division, War Office. 1886. Revised 1891, mainly from material supplied by the Surveyor General of India. At that time, it was the view of the British government that the islands in the Strait of Hormuz, including Abu Musā and the Tunbs, belonged to Persia, and this map reflected that understanding, showing the islands and Iran in the same color.
