Maps of the Holy Roman Empire
Maps of the Holy Roman Empire, from historical atlases and maps of the time: the empire under the Ottonians and Hohenstaufen, its patchwork of states, the Thirty Years' War, and Germany before Napoleon dissolved the empire in 1806.
Why they are free to use: Most were published more than a century ago, so their copyright has expired. Each map's page shows its own licence basis and a credit line.
