Hmm. Could be better. Could be worse.

Well the Soviet-Romanian border is off. It seems to follow the modern Moldovan-Ukrainian border which includes Transnistria within Romania. That wasn't the case as the Romanian-Soviet border was based on the entire river. So here's a patch:

Also, Cyprus is the wrong colour. It should be shown as British rather than Turkish

EDIT: And shouldn't Zadar/Zara being shown as Italian? If the map is from 1920 onwards then it should.

Very nice, however in looking back I see that redditredcoat2016's map is supposed to be for 1921. Which means that the Rhineland occupation zones should be smaller and that there should be an American zone as well (the Americans withdrew in 1923).

For example:

http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4bFl8J7Zk...0/Armistice+and+Occupation-of-Germany-Map.jpg (this does NOT show the eastern boundary of the Allied occupation area properly though but might show the boundaries between the Allied zones clearly, at least for 1922 I believe)


https://erenow.com/common/that-swee...the-british-and-the-french.files/image081.jpg (showing the planned and actual phased evacuation of the Rhineland by the Allies)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remil...d#/media/File:Occupation_of_the_Rhineland.png (showing the phased evacuation as well as the proper boundaries of the Allied occupied area and subsequent temporary occupations to the east of the Rhineland zone as a result of Allied sanctions and the Ruhr occupation)

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipe...ve_Operations_and_Occupation_of_Rhineland.png (initial occupation zones in 1918)


Saarland should also be smaller (the area coloured blue in the map in the link, the one shown is the 1947 Saar protectorate which is outlined in brown on the map):

So something like this would seem to be more accurate for the Rhineland in 1921:

A small section of the Ruhrgebiet (Düsseldorf, Duisburg) were occupied by the French and Belgians from 8th March 1921 before withdrawing in September, so depending on the date of the 1921 map this should be shown too. On the wikipedia map (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/ba/Occupation_of_the_Rhineland.png) it's the bit labelled Sanktionsgebiet 1921.

Yes, thank you. I had included it already, but as part of the Belgian zone only as I believe from some of the other source maps I had posted that Düsseldorf-Duisburg area was only occupied by the Belgians (while the French meanwhile occupied Frankfurt)
