I guess they weren't needed then perhaps? Generally local maps here in the states, until the invention of the automobile were drawn up by whatever county or city the maps were for, yes, you could buy a copy, but they were not in common circulation unless you had a car.
- jandrese 7y agoSome places aren't mapped for political/military reasons. The idea being that a public map would be helpful to an invading force so they are prohibited by law. In other places the maps are purposely incorrect to be of less use to an invading force. Making life hell for locals is considered an acceptable side effect for national security.
