About UniMaps

UniMaps is the part time work of many people that enjoy history and maps. Sometimes directed by Graeme Rendle and assisted by Beauregarde Cavendish, Marty Hallmann, Anna-Mieke Anderson, Xaanadu Moran and many other neat people that have contributed their time, advice and expertise. We also thank all at MiaDonna & Co. and The Greener Diamond LLC for their great advice and data on current African conflicts.

Our translaters from time to time are; Anna Rzaczynska (Russian and Polish), Claudia Blank (Portuguese), Karla Alvarez (Spanish), Gert Schidor (German), Marie-Dominque Lennan (French), Nick Tarcan (Romanian), Emilio Diaz (Portuguese and Spanish), and Pasquale Iorizzo (Italian).
Other contributing translaters via the internet are; Antero Zetterberg (Finnish) and Rolv Bjelland (Norwegian).

We have specialised in the exploration of Africa and the colonial era of Africa, and the domination of France and England of the Middle East during the same era, and equally in the current political situation in both areas.

We hope these maps and commentaries provide you with a greater undertanding of the political and geographical areas shown.

In 2006, we added a new section, "World Maps" in response to many reader requests. We hope these are informative.
