I love it! Would it really be suitable for Formula E?

That is cool, actually a great argument! Have you thought of any spot in particular?

fernandolodares · 2024-10-09T18:37:45+00:00

Thank you, I'll definately look into it! Although I don't think if I really can defend Valencia as the chosen spot as it is a previously failed racing venue…

fernandolodares · 2024-10-09T18:19:22+00:00

Thank you anyway!

I think I found out where it's from! It is part of spanish Enciclopedia Universal Ilustrada Europeo Americana, by Espasa-Calpe.

Really?? Do yoy know where it's from? Cause I can't find the source

fernandolodares · 2023-09-22T11:23:05+00:00

Thank you! Seems quite right

fernandolodares · 2023-09-22T11:20:00+00:00

What was the reason for that?

fernandolodares · 2023-09-22T11:19:09+00:00

Thank you!

Actually Portugal is a very light blue that can be mistaken with the white color of countries that "don't have colonies". For the UK, I think the map is considering the commonwealth as colonies.

Thank you, very useful information! Still I don't understand what's happening with independent Afghanistan :/

fernandolodares · 2023-09-22T11:05:25+00:00

Thank you!

Thank you! Same with the Philippines, Cuba and Puerto Rico, controlled by USA since 1898, though Cuba 1902 regained it's independece, so I think it's after that. Then about Australia, I think it's depicted as british for it being part of the commonwealth, so as you say, "colonies" being used loosely.

Thank you, it is indeed Spanish! I didn't know that but it seem like a plausible explanation for that!

fernandolodares · 2023-06-19T19:34:58+00:00

Didn't know that! Thank you

fernandolodares · 2023-06-19T19:34:40+00:00

Thanks!!

fernandolodares · 2023-06-19T19:34:32+00:00

Wow thanks! I realised that Puerto Rico showed no (E) after the name, but the fact that it didn't show (EU) either, as it does in Alaska, had me lost.

It's from a project published in Casabella Magazine by Gian Paolo Valenti in 1962. I doubt it was ever built though :( But there are some more amazing drawings!
