Maps of Transylvania in Hungary, the Austrian Empire and Romania

There are many maps one can look at to learn about the people and the land of Transylvania.  I particularly like looking at maps because sometimes they can speak from the past far better than people can write.  You can create a map, but then you can also argue over it.

Transylvania itself gives a person so much to think about and so do the maps.  They show the relationship between Hungary and Transylvania, and they also show Romania and the principalities which became Romania.

Each map shows different details, and this is important when researching Transylvania and where it lies within Europe.






This is a further breakdown of the land of Transylvania and where it was.  The Banat and Crisana, and some other places are shown so that a person can understand "where is Transylvania?".  Often most people who have never been to Romania or Hungary do not realize that the Banat borders the country of Hungary.
