Folding Map 21 x 26 inches, 550 x 680mm, in original hand colour to show the various Dutchies, Principalities, Counties, etc., Dissected and laid on linen, as issued. Preserved within the original marbled card slipcase with Faden's label. Detailed map of Belgium and Luxembourg, published by one of London's leadiing mapmakers, William Faden.

An army was gathered which managed to beat the Austrians in Battle of Turnhout in October, and the establishment of the independent 'United States of Belgium' was declared in January 1790. However the Austrians had regained control by the end of the year. The complicated political geography of the region is explained in the small print at the bottom of the map.

The County of Flanders divided into Austrian, French and Dutch Flanders. 7. The County of Namur or Namurois to Austria except a few Districts towards the South which belong to the French. 8. The County of Haynau divided between Austria and France. 9. The County of Artois to France. 10. The Cambresis to France.…
