World map in 1792

On 1 July 1792, IntMap’s historical map draws 436 names within the world. The borders for this date come from OpenHistoricalMap (day by day), then Cliopatria, Seshat Global History Databank (by year), then historical-basemaps — each drawn only where the records before it are silent. The map also draws 13 outlines here that the source gives no name.
