Italian empire 1914

Map of the Italian Empire in 1914. Of note, at this time, the Vatican was not independent from Italy (this occurred in 1929). The future colony of Libya is correctly shown in 1914 as the two separate Italian colonies it was at the time, Tripolitania and Fezzan. Cyrenaica is shown as a disputed area as both the United Kingdom and Italy laid claim to it. Minuscule Italian possessions are surrounded by red circling, including the small Italian holding of 46 hectares in Tianjin, a Chinese trading city which had numerous European territorial holdings. Mongolia is depicted as part of China; however it had already declared independence in 1911.
