Its exceptionally broad coverage runs from the Balkans and Turkey across the eastern Mediterranean, Iraq and Iran to Afghanistan and Pakistan, and south through Egypt, Sudan and the Arabian Peninsula; Hadhramaut is continued in a same-scale inset. Hypsometric tints and spot heights model the terrain, while a dense transport overlay distinguishes main and secondary roads, caravan routes, railways and oil pipelines alongside international boundaries. Published by John Bartholomew \u0026amp; Son at the Edinburgh Geographical Institute, the sheet captures the region during the short-lived United Arab Republic era and combines geopolitical, transport and physical-geography interest.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53959023624539,"sku":"P-6-112356","price":115.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/9583\/1643\/files\/P-6-112356a.jpg?v=1788372716"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.antiquemapsandprints.com\/fr\/collections\/bartholomew-the-middle-east.oembed","provider":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
