Depicts the entire country color coded according to individual German states. Unlike most of Mitchell's European series, this map did not appear in all editions of the Atlas. It was prepared in 1853 to replace and earlier, smaller map of the same region - despite this Mitchell chose to save money by not updating the copyright, hence it is still dated to 1850.
