Factual geographic reconstruction; original chart artwork not republished Unassigned civil-war gaps in the annual vector source are rebuilt within the prewar imperial outline, excluding dated neighbouring states. Campaign maps determine Red and White control.
The Brest-Litovsk layer shows the source’s March–May 1918 occupation campaign envelope, rather than presenting it as the treaty text’s exact line on a single day.
Civil-war lines show the published campaign phase. Port, railway and uprising footprints represent thematic military-presence regions; their stated widths do not claim surveyed political frontiers.
