Propaganda maps


http://www.historum.com/general-history/9905-propaganda-maps.html

 Propaganda maps are generally used by the government to persuade the public to believe their certain ideology. For the most part propaganda maps are only used in times of war, but can be used at any time to try and influence the public to follow the governments ideals. The pattern for propaganda maps is they almost always come at times of war and always make the enemy look like horrific people. The picture shown above is a propaganda map about all of Europe being at war with one another and characterizing each country with certain animals or pictures that may have a multitude of meanings.
