Russian Empire maps

Russian Empire maps depict a vast territory spanning Eastern Europe, Northern Asia, and parts of North America, reflecting its historical expanse from the 17th to early 20th centuries. They show political boundaries, regions, and cities within a multi-ethnic empire. These maps often highlight diverse landscapes, including tundra, forests, and steppe, as well as key infrastructure like roads and railways. They serve as essential tools for understanding the empire's geography, administration, and expansion over time, illustrating its influence across multiple continents and the complexity of managing such a large, diverse territory.
