Language map of area surrounding Black Sea (including Northern Turkey, up to Moscow), showing borders (including those not yet in effect) after the Treaty of Brest. Lacks Flemming's map number (52). Romanian boundaries and presence of those not yet in effect likely make this an earlier edition of later maps published 1918-1920. Sprachgebiete hauptsächlich nach A. F. Rittlich, H. Nabert, W. Gaigalat, N. v. H. Nabert, S. Rudnyckyj und A. Ischirkow ; bearbeitet von J. I. Kettler. Relief shown by spot heights, depths by isolines. Color Legend "Politische Gebiete (nur Grenzkolorit) vor dem Weltkriege" = (Political areas (only border color) before the world war). Also: "Sprachgebiete (Flächenkolorit)" = (Language Areas (area color)) Shows: "Feststehend Grenzen der neuen Staaten" = (The boundaries of the new states). "Noch nicht feststehende Grenzen" = (Limits not yet established) "Westgrenze der russischen und Nordgrenze der türkischen Staatsoberhoheit nach dem Frieden von Brest" = (West border of the Russian and northern borders of the Turkish sovereignty after the peace of Brest). Note: "Die schlagbaumartig in Streifen kolorierten Gebiete sind solche mit starker Mischung der beiden Völker" = (The regions colored in stripes are those with a strong mixture of the two peoples).
