'Racial Map of Europe'
"The seething melting-pot of Europe": Hammond's 1916 ethnographic map, reissued in 1918 as the peacemakers prepared to redraw the continent along national lines. Every people has its colour — English, Welsh and Erse, North French and Provençals, Basques and Catalans, Low, Middle and High Germans, Poles, Czechs, Magyars, Great, Little and White Russians, Finns, Letts and Lithuanians, Roumanians, Bulgarians, Croats, Serbs, Greeks, Turks, Kurds, Armenians and Caucasians, with the Berbers along the North African shore. The boundaries are those of language and race, not of states, which is why maps like this became weapons at Versailles
