Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Australian War map published between 1914 and 1918 with an emphasis on German possessions in the Pacific (German Samoa) and in China. The map shows the area of influence (British, French, USA, German...), although there are some errors : Wallis and Futuna were under French protectorate and not British ; Niue ("Savage island") was under British rule, not American. Nauru ("Pleasant I.") was conquered in 1914 by Australian troops from the Germans.
Français : Carte de guerre australienne publiée entre 1914 et 1918, avec une attention spéciale portée aux possessions allemandes dans le Pacifique : Samoa Allemandes, comptoirs en Chine. La carte montre les zones d'influences (britannique, française, américaine, allemande) sur les différentes îles, même s'il y a des erreurs : Wallis et Futuna (îles de Horn) étaient sous protectorat français et non pas britannique ; Niue ("Savage Island") était sous contrôle britannique et pas américain. Nauru ("Pleasant I.") était sous contrôle allemand jusqu'à sa conquête en 1914 par les troupes australiennes.
