Named in the source
Countries, territories, and regions mapped in 1815
Usable source labels can mix states, empires, dependencies, cultural regions, and other mapped entities. Wording follows the dataset rather than forcing every shape into a modern-country category.

Precision in the source
Not every border deserves the same confidence
Precision is inherited from the dataset when available. It describes how the line was encoded, not the overall certainty of every historical claim inside the polygon.
- Determined by international law
- 435
- Approximate border
- 1
These precision categories cover all mapped geometries. Label coverage is reported separately above, so the two sets of counts should not be added together.
