The antique map titled ‘Rvssiae, vulgo Moscovia, Pars Australis’ was created in 1665 and depicts the southern part of Russia, commonly known as Muscovy. Russia in the early 17th century was a vast and diverse country, with a mixture of cultures and religions. It was bordered by Kazakhstan to the east, Belarus to the west, and Ukraine to the south. The map shows the central locations of Moscow, Kyiv, and Voronezh, but does not provide specific details about other places depicted on the map. Overall, the map provides a fascinating glimpse into Russia’s past and the geopolitical landscape of the time.
