I suggest that you use a combination of resources to carry out this task: atlases in Leyburn's reference collection would certainly be useful, and often the Web can be very helpful. The National Geographic site could be a help (www.nationalgeographic.com/maps/), and Wikipedia (www.wikipedia.org) and google (google.com) can provide all sorts of useful ancillary information.

The point is to get YOU to do some basic orientation in preparation for Tuesday's summary of history and geography. Please bring your completed maps to class to turn in on Tuesday.
