[edit] Errors

This map uses incorrect terms in that Great Britain didn't exist as a political entity in 1818 or 1846, having been superseded by the United Kingdom following the Act of Union with Ireland in 1801. (Hewstep 20:08, 1 April 2006 (UTC))

The map shows a portion of the en:Isle of Orleans as part of the West Florida (Spanish Cession) en:1819, but the area south of en:Lake Pontchartrain and east of the Amite River were part of the en:Louisiana Purchase en:1803 (from France).
